Why it is on this site
  • Two activities in one booking, with the choice of a stand-up paddleboard or the steadier canoe.
  • 62 reviews averaging 4.9, and the SUP or canoe kit, snorkelling gear, wetsuit in winter, life jacket and photos are all included.
  • Imgya Marine Garden is the sheltered cove on the south coast that the model days on this site already stop at.
Best for

Couples on a 10-hour call who want a full morning on the water rather than a single 90-minute dip.

Think twice if

Two meeting points on the south coast, both car parks, so the taxi arrangements matter more than for a single-stop tour; the operator confirms times and places only the day before. Three hours in the water and sun is a long morning, and it is not recommended for heart or spinal conditions.

A three-hour half day that pairs a SUP or canoe paddle at Imgya Marine Garden with a sea-turtle snorkel at Shigira Beach. Best for: Couples on a 10-hour call who want a full morning on the water rather than a single 90-minute dip.

How long a port call do I need for this tour?

About 6 hours. The tour runs 3 hr; add half an hour to get off the ship and keep the hour before all-aboard free. Three hours on the water plus the drive each way and the hour kept before all-aboard: a call of about six hours.

The operator's policy: For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. The operator may cancel for bad weather, with a refund.
