What to expect
Expect a relaxed boat journey hugging the southern coastline. After a safety briefing, you'll cruise past dramatic volcanic topography whilst your guide explains the area's ecological significance. When you reach the snorkelling site, you'll slip into shallow, protected waters—typical visibility is 10–15 metres. Bring your own mask or use provided kit. A second stop allows time to swim and soak in the serenity of the reserve. The boat is compact but sturdy, with shade and handholds. Weather permitting, you'll return via the same scenic route.
