This captivating sanctuary hosts a permanent community of Green, Hawksbill, and Loggerhead Turtles, thriving amidst the vibrant tapestry of hard and soft corals that adorn the reef. Not to mention the dolphins, wobbegongs & come June-October, the magnificent humpback whales! Participants MUST be able to swim!
