First, we waited for more than 1 hour in the "tourist center", not sure why we got picked up so early.. after the boat left the port we had to go back and fetch some more people than they forget.... after that there was not enough room for everyone onboard and some people left stranded to sit in plastic chairs. So the activity started late, and ended up 2 hours after the scheduled time. After we've encountered some wave, the ship started falling apart and a big log felt close to the children in the middle of the boat. Snorkeling was supposed to be good but conditioned by strong current. Once again the boat left the diving site leaving some people behind, and they had to stop again to fetch those poor guys increasing the delay time. supposed to be BBQ lunch but actually we were given some food which was cooked maybe in the morning and boarded to the ship together with us, so "cold BBQ lunch", just don't expect they will cook in front of you.
