Wir haben eine gute Einweisung ein das richtige handling mit dem Kajak, der Taucherbrille und dem Schnorchel bekommen. Danach ging es auch schon los, wir sind bei wenig Wellengang auf offene mehr gepaddelt, haben bei einer Fischfarm angehalten und haben hier deinen Delfin beobachten können. Ein Stück weiter in einer Lagune in der wir dann auch schnorcheln waren, waren sehr viele Fische zu sehen und tatsächlich auch Schildkröten und ein riesiger Rochen! Danach ging es wieder zurück und sind am Strand angekommen, da der Wellengang an der anderen Stelle zu stark war und wir kleine Kinder mit in der Gruppe hatten. Angekommen haben wir uns noch ein wenig abbrausen können und erstmal realisieren, was wir alles gesehen haben. Es war großartig, vielen Dank!!
