Highly recommend this. They also provide free floating devices to support you while swimming. The hiring crew also offer amazing advice on swimming spots etc
Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. Really appreciate the positive feedback. Thanks GBB Team
The service with the equipment was great and all in good condition. The limited dish we saw made the detour seem not worthwhile.
Goat Island was amazing as it was my first time snorkeling. You can swim around Goat Island if you are confident in your swimming and go onto Goat Island itself. Lots of rocks that is hard on your feet, so take caution if you decide to take your fins off. I'd recommend for anyone traveling on the North Island as the views are beautiful.

재미있었습니다
고프로 꼭 챙겨가세요. 조류만 조심하시면 스노클링 경험이 없어도 재미있습니다.
