Snorkelling trip blue cave. - We had a fantastic experience on our half-day snorkeling trip to the Blue Cave with Akari as our guide. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. The Blue Cave was stunning and truly lived up to the hype, with crystal clear water and tons of beautiful fish around the area. She also took photos and videos for us throughout the tour. We highly recommend booking with Adventure Pipi

Lovely morning snorkeling tour - I went on a snorkeling tour and it was lovely. We saw a lot of animals and corals. Our guide Akari was the best. She made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable at all times. She is also very knowledgeable about the area and animals and could answer all questions and gave great recommendations. Would do a tour with her again any day! You're the best Akari, thank you for the great morning.

Nothing special. - It was a rainy day and low tide, but the trip was nothing special anyway. Very short swim through the best part and then a few minutes in a small cave. No showers. Take a towel to have some privacy while getting back into your dry clothes. This is really for beginner snorkelling.
