What to expect
You'll board a compact yacht and cruise past the five villages, anchoring at quieter spots for swimming and snorkelling. Expect calm, scenic sailing with plenty of time to relax between stops—there's no rushing. Midway through, brunch of local produce is served on board with water, soft drinks, and alcohol included. The crew handles navigation and logistics; your job is to swim, eat, and take in the views. Bring a sense of curiosity rather than a tight schedule.
Good to know
Pack your own beach towel and sunscreen; seasickness tablets aren't supplied, so take preventatives if you're prone. Prams and strollers are welcome for young children. Public transport is nearby if you need it before or after.
