We had a ball Nan Pop Daughter and Grandaughter what a beautiful island Turtles Fish and Bird life and the tour was very experienced with great staff cant wait to do it again
This tour was absolutely brilliant - a fun boat ride to an island that had very few guests (less than 50 on the day we were there). We saw turtles before we even left the boat!!! The experience of swimming with wild turtles was incredible and they were within metres of the shore line so a very easy swim. Would definitely do this tour again.
