좋은 배 좋은 경험 단 스쿠버다이빙은 포함되어있지 않음.

출발시 매표소 다운언더부스로 가서 바우처 보여주면 티켓받고 선착장으로 가서 배에 탑승후 서류 작성. 첫번째 포인트 도착해서 스노클링 시작. 다른 후기에서 스쿠버 1회가 무료라고 적혀있었지만 다이빙에는 추가 금액을 내야했고 스노클링만 2회 진행했다. 두 포인트 중 두번째 포인트갇 더 좋았다. 점심은 뷔페식인데 샐러드는 맛이좀 별로였고 새우와 스테이크가 그나마 먹을만했다. 스테이크는 대량으로 굽다보니 구웠다기보단 얇게 삶은느낌. 한국사람들은 초장가져가면 새우 많이 먹을 수 있을듯. 스노클링 시간은 1시간~1시간30분? 정도 주는것 같고 돌아오는 배에서 공짜 와인,치즈,크래커,과일을 준다. 과일은 빨리 없어지기 때문에 복귀해서 빠르게 줄 서시길.
