3.00You need good weather to enjoy. The staff was excellent and there were many activities available. However our day was too windy to enjoy anything.
Absolutely go for it!

5.00I had doubt on the way to the island as it was very ordinary and the glass at the bottom of the glass boat is so dirty. However, the guided snorkeling experience is among the best I've done, do many sea stars and all sorts of colorful fishes and coral reefs. The underwater world near the beach is absolutely unparallel and the waves are very gentle so the swimming is very easy! The lunch buffet is surprisingly delicious and offers a lot options. There are also sufficient time to enjoy the beach without feeling too short or too long. The crew kept us entertained on the ship by playing instruments and singing (beautiful singing!). Genuinely enjoyable trip!
Relaxed and welcoming from start to finish!

Decided to learn to scuba dive and tried paddle boarding too. Next time I need a massage! Thank you Captain Cook Cruises you made our holiday so special!
