Left the dock promptly beating the crowds to all three islands making it feel like we had the islands to ourselves. Spent the perfect amount of time at each stop and beautiful stops for snorkelling. For those not so comfortable with snorkelling/swimming the guides were excellent in supporting in the water with life jackets and safety rings to support.
