Wildlife Encounter: Sea Turtle & Ray Sanctuary Visit

A small-group boat trip to a protected sanctuary to wade among gentle rays and observe nesting sea turtles with a marine biologist.

What to expect

A short boat ride brings you to shallow sandbars where southern rays glide close enough to touch under the biologist's guidance. You'll learn about the sanctuary's conservation work and, seasonally, may spot nesting turtles along the protected beach. The small group size means real conversation with the guide and unhurried time in the water.

Good to know

Reef-safe sunscreen only is permitted; book early as daily sanctuary permits are limited, and the tour returns with a comfortable margin before boarding time.
