we are Tom and Dom travel and we release a new Cruise related video every single week

the forest Lagoon is significantly cheaper than the Blue Lagoon so if you are looking for an alternative option

we were so lucky because the weather was absolutely glorious the Sun was shining and both of us caught the sun

the forest Lagoon allows you to stay there for around 2 hours and we think this is more than adequate
