After taking the advice to visit this place, I was truly, truly moved to tears

How to get to Huan Tan Island? ❶ Huan Tan Island can only be visited by joining a day tour, and it is recommended to book online in advance. We booked a package that includes transfers, lunch, and 2 snorkeling sessions, around ¥480 per person. ❸ We set off around 7:30 am, arrived at Magellan Pier, and returned around 2:30 pm, with the boat journey taking about an hour. About safety -Before getting into the water, I was actually quite nervous, as we didn't prepare any equipment and just wore ordinary swimsuits. -Liu doesn't know how to swim, and I can only swim in a pool. !But it turned out that snorkeling is so much fun! We both fell in love with snorkeling and are now preparing to get our own snorkeling gear! Diving masks, life jackets, and diving socks are provided, and it's essential to wear the life jacket throughout. If you can't swim, just hold onto the rope. Snorkeling experience -At the first snorkeling spot, we held onto the rope and had a shallow experience, saw some colorful fish and corals, it was okay, but not astonishing, just felt snorkeling was interesting. -The second snorkeling spot was amazing! The water was very shallow, so you can stand up, which makes it very safe! -There were super many clownfish and living corals! We really saw Nemo here! So many! The coral reefs were also very numerous and large! You must go into the sea to see! -We added an underwater GoPro photo shoot on the boat, and after bargaining, it was 50rm for two people, which was quite a good deal. Xiao Hei was very reliable, pulling us around one-on-one to find spots. In the end, we got 7 videos and 80 photos! Other tips After snorkeling, we returned to Huan Tan Island for lunch. The lunch and drinks were buffet-style, which was okay, don't have too high expectations. ❷ The afternoon is free time, you can take photos or rest on the island, the beaches and sea water of Huan Tan Island are really great! It's advisable to prepare seasickness medicine in advance, as it's quite easy to get seasick. Sun protection is really too important! Sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses are essential!
