Snorkel in Crystal Waters
Once we’ve seen the way of the locals, we’ll head back on our private boat to make our way to Hon Mun island for snorkelling! The waters around this picturesque island are shallow and crystal clear – the perfect ecosystem for coral reefs and tropical fish! All snorkelling equipment will be provided for you onboard, as well as a delicious lunch. If you’re in the mood for a chilled beer or soft drink, we’ll have these available for purchase. Take the time to enjoy the sunset, paint beautiful soft colours in the sky, and admire the glistening water. Unfortunately, it is time to make our way back to the wharf where we will take our private transport back to port, but there is still time to admire the setting sun and tranquil seascape from your window! Your guide will take you back to port in plenty of time.
