Activities

There are different types of activities or excursions: by boat, by 4x4 car or walking and light trekking. The activities in the marine park are: scuba diving, snorkeling, sailing, and visiting the local villages. PolePole organizes boat excursions and picnics to isolated islets, sandbanks or islands every day, according to the tide.

The Diving Centre provides PADI Federations certificates (medical certificates are mandatory to do a beginner's course). The excursions by 4x4 car take you right across the island through villages and changing landscapes up to the northern tip where a lighthouse stands.

You can be as adventurous as you want to be.
