What to expect
You'll start with hotel pickup, then head to the bay where your guide takes the paddle while you sit low in the canoe, navigating tight cave passages and open water. The day alternates between paddling through grottoes (some require ducking), drifting past dramatic rock formations, and stops to swim or explore lagoons. James Bond Island is busy but worth the visit. Lunch arrives mid-afternoon on the boat; dinner follows before your evening return. Expect physical effort—your guide rows, but you're in a small, unstable craft for hours. The pace is leisurely, not strenuous.
Good to know

Moderate fitness required; avoid if you have back, neck, joint issues, heart conditions, or are pregnant. Minimum 2 people needed; single bookings subject to cancellation if numbers don't meet.
