Tour Overview

Trade a busy day ashore for a boat outing in the waters around Bawe Island.

This ocean-focused day is about the journey as much as the destination: coastal views from the boat, time to enjoy the sea, and a relaxed pace away from town. Discuss snorkeling and the proposed stopping points when planning your outing.

Bawe is privately managed, so a boat excursion should not be confused with guaranteed access to resort beaches or facilities. We will confirm what can be arranged for your date before you book.

Planning your visit

Island access, snorkeling, meals, and hotel transfers must be confirmed in your quote.
