Creator's Key Takeaways

We just actually just walked down to the bus stop just caught the local bus here. Just drop us off pretty much just just up past that lifeguard hut.

It's literally just about the swimming. So, there's lots of people with snorkels snorkeling around and stuff.

It is a pretty cheap and fun experience. There's no doubt.

I could have driven all around the island for that. I just spent going to spend at least 20 bucks on bus fair. So that's definitely something to consider.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Catch the local bus from the cruise terminal to Lemon Bay for about $10 Australian per person.
โœ“Consider hiring a car for around $50 Australian for the day to explore the island.
โœ“Visit in the morning for more shade on the grass area.

Snorkeling quality โ€” Snorkeling is pretty bland compared to places like Vanuatu; focus on swimming instead.
Getting around โ€” Use the local bus or consider hiring a car for more flexibility.
