Balos Lagoon was absolutely stunning with its shallow, turquoise waters. and white sand that almost looked pink in some spots. Natural paradise, and we loved snorkelling there.

The highlight was definitely the balos lagoon with its crystal clear turquoise water and soft white sand. really looks like a postcard. There was plenty of time to swim, relax, and explore the unique landscape. The boat ride was very enjoyable, beautiful views and a refreshing sea breeze.

The stop at the historic island was impressive. We walked up to the old fortress, it was a bit of a workout, but the panoramic views from the top were absolutely worth it.
