Looking for an island adventure, where you can get away from the masses?

Consider an Island Tour to the Exuma Islands in the Bahamas for a day of snorkeling coral reefs, a beach-side feast, and encounters with tropical wildlife.

Hermit Crabs are awesome little scavengers who will make off with your food droppings, especially coffee grounds and fruit bits.

Without refrigeration, leftovers don’t do well in the tropical heat.  Fortunately, helpful sharks are always waiting to help with garbage disposal.

Save some grapes for the iguanas, and their reptile friends.

Just don’t feed the overpopulated, scariest tropical wildlife of all - tourists!

I went on this exact trip in Easter 2007, have to say it was absolutely amazing, trip of a lifetime!

Fed iguanas and the sharks too, and went on that sandbank- when we went onto the snadback a lady decided to go swimming but the tide was too strong and she got washed away- the boat had to go aftre her!
