Wonderful afternoon on the water with guides “V, M and L”. This was not only a snorkel adventure, but also a nice tour of the waterfront and geography. Guides were excellent.

A notre surprise dès la sortie du port nous avons pu observer un baleineau s’amuser. C’était un booking last minute car nous arrivions sur l’île tôt le matin et ne voulions pas perdre de temps. C’était un très bon choix.
