This project was very well designed. There was a shuttle bus for early departure and late return. Upon arrival at the ferry terminal, the driver handed us over to the tour leader, who led us onto the speedboat. I was worried about seasickness, but the speedboat sped along the waves without me feeling dizzy at all. The tour leader served us desserts, and then took us to Hook Island for snorkeling. The coral and fish underwater were so beautiful! We snorkeled twice in different spots, experiencing different underwater worlds. Afterwards, we returned to the boat for a Western-style fast food meal. After resting, the speedboat continued its journey, taking us to Whitehaven Beach. The snow-white sand and turquoise sea were simply breathtaking—a truly beautiful scene, making the trip worthwhile.

A simple headcount, a radio call, or a quick announcement asking which guests had not yet collected their tickets would have solved the problem in minutes. This is basic service management. Even better, tickets should simply be handed out during the main p

Second time Fillroy Island. When I snorkel alone last time, I saw sea turtles 𓆉. This time, when I went to the beach behind the island with my daughter, I saw Napoleon fish 〜\ (^ o ^) / I was lucky.
