Parks & Nature
There are plenty of tour operators (brokers actually) on the beach that can help you hire a glass boat that takes you to the coral reef. The ticket to the marine park is a standard price but you can haggle for the glass boat trip to get the best price. Don't forget your swimming costume/trunks because you will want to get into the water at some point! I left mine behind and regretted it.

This was once a barren quarry that is now a haven for both plant and animal life. Tour guides can take you round. The highlight is the feeding of the crocodiles, so it's good to call ahead and find out what time that is.

The beach is literally at our doorstep. It is a quiet section of the beach but a few minutes stroll will bring you to a livelier area that is lined with hotels, cafes and curio shops.
