Those who love snorkeling and diving, visiting this island will be a great experience to do the activity. No wonder this island became one of the paradise for diving enthusiasts.
The most interesting activity on the island is the visitors can dive with the children of sharks, turtles and even shells (giant sea shells) whose size can reach up to one meter. There is also one interesting place to dive, called Fish Well. This place is an underwater hole that has not been clarified its depth. We can see the color of the beautiful fish in and out of this hole.
Interestingly on this island, there are so many baby sharks that play along the coastline, just walk 5 meters from the room and we will meet with these sharks.
