What to expect
You'll board a contemporary speedboat equipped with comfortable seating and weather protection. The skipper navigates close to the cliff face, pointing out each major cave system and explaining the geology and local history. Expect two or three dedicated swimming stops where you can jump in with provided snorkelling gear to explore underwater rock formations. The boat rocks gently but noticeably in moderate swell; if you're prone to seasickness, take precautions beforehand. Facilities onboard mean you won't need to return to shore between swims.
