Maybe because I have been to the mangroves before, this experience seemed so ordinary, as if I could just go to a seafood restaurant near the coast of the estuary to enjoy it; also, maybe because I had to go there by myself, not many people came so the whole atmosphere was so lonely and empty.

It's easy enough for beginners and it's really fun! You can even swim in the river water so clear you can see the bottom :)

A great experience overall! Booking was straight forward. Comprehensive details regarding confirmation and preparation were sent via Whatsapp. Transport was timely and efficient. The boat to the islands was beautiful and equipped with a modern flushable toilet (with bidet of course!). The boat ride was cruisey with plenty of space, especially the side-facing relaxers offering lovely views of the deep blue. Meals were included (main chicken and rice dish, soup, vegetables, watermelon, pineapple, tea, coffee, water). The food was hearty and delicious. Stopped at three different snorkelling spots for ~40 mins each and a beach on a tiny island for another ~40 mins, post-lunch. The coral is absolutely stunning (and quite alien-like). Definitely a must-see beauty of nature. Although a crew member was taking underwater photos whilst snorkelling, i’d highly recommend taking a waterproof casing for your phone to take your own photos (which i sadly didnt have and so didnt get any pics of corals)
