Snorkeling wasn’t included in the tour ,we have to pay extra money for snorkeling. They provide snorkeling equipment only and glass bottom boat tour.

Glass bottom boat was a highlight! We saw a massive variety of fish and coral. Snorkelling was difficult with a three year old, but we were able to go close to shore and even saw a starfish. Not a lot to do on the island, but we did make use of the pool.

It was a fun experience, and we were able to see some interesting marine life. My only complaint is that it was a really quick ride.
