  • Good snorkelling

    The snorkelling was good, the service was slow, the boat trip out was bumpy and wet, and the food, chicken and rice. was cheap, and had too much sugar. Not good value for money.

    Surreal, tranquil and absolutely stunning! My partner and I did the day trip with snorkelling and lunch. We loved every tiny piece of our experience; exploring around the island beaches and rock shelves, snorkelling the reef, devouring a delicious lobster lunch, and simply resting in the shade of the coconut trees with a Tusker in hand. The conservation initiatives are a fantastic endeavour and we know they will result in great outcomes for the local ecosystem. It was fascinating to see some WW2 relics, learn the history of the island, and chat with the staff - Dany and his crew were most friendly and accommodating. Dany's Island is a refreshing break from the commercialised tourism industry, like going over to a friend's place and getting the local's treatment. If you are looking for a peaceful, serene, and wholesome experience then you don't have a choice, Dany's Island is a must. We'll be back one day.

    We were staying at Turtle Bay Lodge and decided not to Kayak across due to tides but booked the boat transfer day tour with addon of Lobster for lunch and cold tusker. Dany and his crew were awesome, we learnt lots on our island tour about the plants, history and coconut crabs. We were shown the beautiful bungalows that are near completion over looking the surf break. The tiki bar is really cool. We found a sunny private spot for some sunbathing and we're hypnotised by the thousands of little hermit crabs all shapes, sizes and colours going about their day in the coral. You really need to chill and relax to see them. We jumped in the water and snorkeled the entire reef inside the outer reef. The best snorkelling was halfway back towards the surf break. Healthy coral and all types of colouful fish. Be careful not to get to close to surf break especially on outgoing tide, the current coming back was strong. We devoured our lobster which was delicious. Siesta under the trees and transfer back to Turtle Bay. Blissful, stress free day on our own tropical island! Look forward to visiting again and staying over on our next trip to Santo. Thanks Dany for creating a special sanctuary.

    I had a wonderful trip to Dany Island and the blue hole. The whole team were fabulous and so helpful. Its a little spot of paradise I am so glad that I picked that tour. The massage I had from Rebecca was amazing, the lunch tasty and snorkelling wonderful. Dany was so kind and happy to share his story around the island and Mathias a great driver and guide. I would definitely go back again!
