The latest way to experience the wonders under the sea! Your 6.5-hour adventure begins with a short transfer across a protected lagoon to lively De Palm Island, where you'll be directed to the SEA TREK Underwater Helmet Walk area for an equipment orientation and safety briefing. Your helmet and air system, which allows you to keep your glasses on and your hair dry, will be put on your head as you enter the water down a ladder walking the sea walk up to 20 feet below. Your guided walk (with a helpful handrail) is a totally immersive experience with spectacular marine life. See exotic parrotfish, coral formations and even sunken wrecks. Once you have walked this incredible sea path, it's time to return to the beach, where you can soak up the sun and enjoy a light complimentary buffet (breakfast or lunch). Afterwards, explore De Palm Island's other amenities, including snorkeling, volleyball and a banana boat ride. Return to port after this awesome experience.
