My husband and I picked the "All in One" sea trip from TUT VOYAGES. We were extremely happy with everything!!! We got so lucky with the boat crew — friendly, polite guys. For a small extra fee you can go under for a second look at the underwater world, and believe me, it's worth it!!! I saw a stingray, and during the open-sea snorkeling we saw a huge turtle. Tip: bring your own snorkel mask to get more out of the underwater world. They also fed us very well on the boat, so you don't need to bring your own food.
We did the "Nemo Island and sunset" excursion on February 15th, 2025. A ride on a comfortable boat, plenty of room, not too many people! We made two snorkeling stops! Masks, snorkels and fins provided! An instructor accompanies you while diving! We rode the banana boat and the towable tube! There was tasty lunch and an unforgettable time on the island! On the way back we caught the sunset over the sea! We loved everything!
