Important Information
- Bring a towel, waterproof bag, swimwear, sunscreen, sun hat, sunglasses, flip flops and a camera.
- Wear flip flops or water shoes in case there are shells or rocks on the sand and shorts rather than pants as the water level may be above the knees when hopping off/on the boat.
- Ensuring your safety is our top priority. To that end, we strongly recommend wearing a life jacket throughout the entire boat ride to the islands and while snorkeling.
- While flip-flops are convenient, water shoes offer better protection against sharp objects like shells or rocks on the sand, and provide improved traction on wet surfaces.
- Shorts are ideal as they dry quickly and allow for greater freedom of movement, especially if the water level reaches above your knees when getting on or off the boat.
- This tour is not recommended for pregnant women, infants under 2 years or people with back or neck problems.
- Longtail boats navigate close to the shoreline, allowing passengers a convenient and effortless transition to the beach.
- If you prefer not to kayak, you have the option to take a round-trip tour through the mangrove forest by longtail boat. Please request this option prior to your tour.
