A speedboat run of about two and a half hours from the hotel strip, with a reef snorkel in the middle and the spray as part of the deal. Life jackets and masks are fitted before you leave the dock, and you meet the boat at the marina on the hotel strip.
You meet at the marina, kit fitted, and the crew shows you where to sit and how the snorkel stop will work before the lines come off. Two and a half hours covers the ride out, the time in the water and the ride back, so the snorkel is a proper stop, not a splash on the way past.
The boat crosses the lagoon and heads for the reef, short and splashy in the way speedboats are. You get in with the guide, and when that stop is done the same boat brings you back to the marina.
You leave from a marina among the hotels and use the lagoon and the nearby reef, a short run rather than an all-day crossing. The snorkel is wherever the crew likes the look of the water that day, and they tell you before you kit up.
Lagoon water on the way out is calmer, which gets everyone settled before the reef briefing. Wind and swell pick the mooring, the group stays with the boat, and the crew points out the swim step before you use it.
You will need to be at least 6 years old. The sun on the boat is direct even though the trip is short, so sun cream and a hat before you leave the dock will save you a pink afternoon.
For the snorkel, be comfortable in a life jacket and able to follow the guide in the water. Masks are checked on board, and the crew calls the group back to the ladder together, even if the reef still looks tempting.
Before you cast off, you know where to sit and how the stop will work, and the masks and jackets are checked where the crew can actually see them. They tell you how long you have in the water, so you can enjoy it instead of watching the boat.
A guide is in with you and brings the group back together. If the spot is too rough they move it and explain where you are going before anyone gets in, which is a much better surprise than a bumpy snorkel.
Hotel lobby pickup applies on routes that include transport; be ready at the stated departure time with photo ID for children if parks require it.
Self drivers receive meeting point coordinates and parking notes from the operator ahead of the activity date.
You should come ready for a speedboat ride and a reef snorkel. Most of the time is outside, so the heat is as much a part of the day as the activity itself.
Take water when you need it, and tell the guide at the start if you want a slower place in the group. That is much easier than trying to catch them once everyone is already moving.
A meal is not part of this visit, so eat beforehand and bring water with you. A snack in your bag is useful if you get hungry between stops.
Bring more water than you expect to drink if you are out over the middle of the day. A hat makes the sunny stretches much easier.
Light rain does not usually stop the visit. Lightning, a rough sea or a track that is too soft can shorten or move a section, and the guide explains that before you continue.
You will hear the change before you kit up for the next part. The group stays together while that decision is made.
Anyone taking part needs to be at least 6 years old, and children need an adult with them. The guide will say before a section starts if it is not suitable for someone in your group.
They need to be able to listen to the safety talk and stay with the group. The same briefing applies to adults and to children.
You should be comfortable wearing a life jacket and following the guide in the water. You do not need to be a strong swimmer.
The guide stays nearby and calls the group out together. If you would like to stay closer to the entry, say so before you get in.
You can bring a phone or a camera if it is secure and you can spare a hand. Ask the crew before you attach anything to a helmet, a harness or a handlebar.
If someone is taking photos for the group that day, the crew will say so when you arrive. They will also tell you where to collect them afterwards.
If a ruin, a reserve or a beach asks for a local payment, the guide explains it before you get to the entrance. It helps to have a little cash with you in case that happens.
Tips for the crew are your own choice at the end of the day. The guide is the person to ask if you are not sure what a site is asking for.
Bring a dry bag for a phone and anything else you want to keep dry. Ask the crew when you arrive if there is somewhere to change and leave a bag.
Put your name on anything you set down. The group moves between stops, and bags are easy to mix up.
A phone in a waterproof pouch is the simplest option on a boat or in the water. Ask the crew before you strap a camera to a helmet or a machine.
Drones and flash are often not allowed near wildlife or at the ruins. Follow what the guide and the site ask on the day.
Wear light clothes you can move in, closed shoes, and a hat. This includes a boat, so sun cream and a bottle of water are worth having from the start.
Bring swimwear underneath if the visit includes a swim, and a dry layer for the van or the boat. Secure anything you do not want to lose.
