However, we have very high chances of diving with these animals throughout our magical week together:
~ Whale Sharks
~ Manta Rays

When around the islands, kindly cover up with long shorts or pants and t-shirts to respect the local customs. However, on the bikini beach, boats and whilst diving, you are free to wear anything you like.
