An active day with more stops and less travel time than the big-boat economy tour. Expect bumpy sections on the speedboat when the sea is choppy; this tour is not suitable for pregnant guests, babies, or people with serious back/neck issues. Enjoy clear-water snorkeling (conditions vary by season) with coral, reef fish and impressive rock formations. Short but steep hikes to panoramic viewpoints and the Emerald Lagoon; expect stairs, uneven paths and hot weather. A mix of structured activities (snorkel, kayak, hike) and free time to swim or relax on the beach.
