Snorkel the inlet with pristine coral reefs and sea fans while softly guiding over turtles and tropical fish in their natural habitat. Truly a spectacular site! Next join us for a local favorite, swim with pigs. Grab your photo with the pigs and enjoy the sandy beach. Next stop is feeding Salt and Pepper, our rehabilitated sting rays. Enjoy feeding these majestic rays! The sound provides beautiful sandbars on low tide, crystal blue water, and pink sand beaches. On our coastal tour we find cushion starfish, conch, tropical fish, and dolphins while stopping in at Turtle Bay. Once there we relax on the beach while we make fresh conch salad for you!
