We depart every full hour starting at 10 am. The return times are also every hour and you will get the exact timetable from hour staff. Badija Island is the biggest island in the whole archipelago and offers lots of possibilities. On the island you will find a monastery from the 15th century with an integrated museum. If you like architecture and culture you will be impressed. For those who like to swim and snorkel we recommend to explore the backside of the island, where you can find your own small bay or a beach. If you like to be more active you can use the trail which surrounds the island and take a 50 min walk or a 25 min run. You can also climb up to the peak where you find the old st. Catherine church which is now an old ruin. During the high season there is also one restaurant that operates on the island.
