Loved seeing this other side of the island, best snorkeling off the tiny island where we saw sharks and rays and the most beautiful fish -some we'd never seen before. Later we saw a turtle.

It is highly recommended to reserve your activities ahead of time, especially during the dry season and whale migration period, as popular tours can fill up quickly.
