Wunderschöne Bucht!! Absolut zu empfehlen :) toller Sand, wunderschönes Wasser, schöner Blick auf die Natur. Beim Schnorcheln konnten wir tolle bunte Fische beobachten. Die Papageifische waren ein Highlight! Auch hier konnten wir am Strand Flughunde beobachten. Man gelangt fußläufig über das Gelände des four seasons Hotel dorthin, der Eintritt ist kostenfrei. Lediglich der Name muss bei der Pforte hinterlegt werden. Der Rückweg ist etwas anstrengend, aber es lohnt sich!!

Snorkling at will, the fish are among you, even with water up to your waist! You just need the mask to see them....
