The only issue I had this time was my waterproof phone case with the strap wasn't allowed on the zipline and it's the same one I took on our first visit and it was fine. My daughters was allowed. So I had to toss a 30us phone case. It takes the entire day from open to close to do each activity once and eat. It's definitely a beautiful park built into nature. We had a great time.”

“I chose this snorkelling adventure because we were over 60 and the other ones wouldn't take people over the age of 60. So we were very surprised once on board to find out we couldn't snorkel and that it was a harbour master rule of 60 years of age.
