Activity Snapshot
Activity description
After meeting and greeting we start with a safety pre-briefing on top of the dunes and hand out equipment, (mask, snorkel and fins). Then we’ll head into the water for 1 to 1.5 hours where we’ll guide you around safely, pointing out species of interest. On average we see about 50 different species of fish.
Common sightings are butterflyfish, Crayfish, Rays, Rock cod, Wrasses and many more! After our snorkeling we’ll warm up with a lovely cup of coffee/tea or hot chocolate while paging through the Fish ID-book and pointing out what we have seen.
Our guides are highly experienced and always have a torpedo buoy with them in the water for extra safety.
