It was over-regulated and full of tourists. It was not the nature-based expedition I was hoping for. Free diving and snorkelling there were great. It was nice to see giant turtles, but apart from that, there is not much to do there. I visited a few islands, but they did not have wildlife and were also over-regulated. Overall, I was disappointed.
Posted: June 21, 2022I spent 10 days on a small boat (16 passengers), exploring the outer islands. I 100% recommend this if it is possible. Every day we would visit a different island, all of them full of animals, some only found on that island. For the first week we hardly ever saw a boat on the horizon, and then we moved to inhabited islands, which were less interesting for me. This is a trip of a lifetime, so my only advice is: truly go for it.
