Overview
Discover crystal blue waters, white beaches and get the chance to encounter spinner dolphins. We move from Hamata Marina at around 6:30 AM and have a two hours sailing journey to reach Sataya Reef. Here we moor our boat so you can snorkel along the beautiful Sataya coral reefs and swim in the open sea, likely to meet the residing pod of spinner dolphins. Thereafter you will have a buffet lunch, freshly prepared on board. After some resting time on board, you will have the opportunity to go snorkeling and swimming with the jolly dolphins again. We will start to sail back to Hamata Marina in the afternoon, due to arrive at approx 17:00h PM.
