Snorkelling!

Found the cheapest excursion from Dédé Excursions, which was a 3h snorkeling boat ride for 6000F! They pick you up at the place you’re staying, and take you out on the boat. There were two other Czech tourists who joined me.

Timing it so the tide was coming in, as the currents get very strong in the passes during the tide change, they took us out to Tiputa Pass. They would drop us off at one end of the pass, we would float down with the tide currents and they pick us up at the other end! All with a guide and floaty with us of course. We did this three times and then had time to explore the natural “aquarium” at one end on our own for about 20minutes.

Saw so many different fish, very colourful, two blacktip sharks, and dolphins! At some points the fish were all around us so close you could touch them. The dolphins (see video) we just saw from the boat, but apparently they’re only seen on certain days with good weather so we lucked out!Read more
