    The water sports centre next door to the hotel offers free non-motorised water sports - what a great way to while away a couple of hours - take out a sailing boat. Just remember the suntan lotion!

    • Theme: Beach Activities

    The sports centre next door to the hotel will do free hire of snorkelling equipment, but the reef just outside the hotel isn't great, at least not within easy swimming distance. If you are serious about snorkelling, it is probably better to join a boat excursion where they will take you to the best reefs.
