Boat trip to St Anne Marine Park

Today was our pre-booked boat trip to Sainte Anne Marine Park and neighbouring islands 🏝. We were due to be picked up at 9.30am and were ready and waiting in reception. However, our driver didn't turn up until 9.50am, by which time we were very hot and a bit panicky as our boat was due to leave Victoria, a good 20-minute drive away! When he did arrive, he said he was late because he couldn't find us - apparently, he'd been up and down the hill several times before he spotted the sign for Cap Confort!

Luckily, we got to the boat at the same time as the minibus 🚐 bringing the other 16 people who were on our trip. We met Maria from the tour company and paid the €150 balance for the trip. We then boarded the boat and were introduced to our skipper, Kristoffer, and his mate, Salvio. We were soon on our way to our first stop in Sainte Anne Marine Park. We observed the fish through the glass bottom of the boat. Kristoffer explained to us that 90% of the coral was destroyed in the 2004 tsunami. Thankfully, it is recovering well now. We threw some bread 🍞 over the side, which attracted lots of bigger fish 🐟. They were very difficult to photograph 📸, but you get the idea! 😀Leia mais
