Summary: This trip really delivered. You don’t get days like this very often. Even in rainy season the weather was good. Stunning places to swim and snorkel. Great coral. Love the strict no littering policy. You won’t regret this very reasonably priced trip. Even with a couple of extra costs for entering the lagoon and hiring kayaks (not expensive) this is worth every penny. Particularly impressed as a solo traveller that they remembered my name and looked out for me, making sure I was having a good time.
