Lovely day on the water!

Lovely day on the water! Only 1/2 hour of snorkeling, but the boat ride, boat, & staff were lovely. The islands are thankfully less crowded than Phi Phi, but the coral reef is better there. That said, I enjoyed the coral, parrotfish, moorish idols, & more. Enjoyable! :)

Excellent

We did this tour on the advice of the concierge of our hotel, who recommend this walk, they looked for us at the agreed time, and took us to the port from where we set off by speedboat, first stop coral island where we had lunch included in the price without drinks, and with little variety to choose, and they serve you with packaged water, the beach and the place is beautiful, there are armchairs and loungers to have a good time, we were 2 hours there, and then we went on a run where it is also a very beautiful island, we were also 2 hours there, the excursion is recommended, the only thing criticizes is the lunch the other staff that assisted us really excellent!
