“This excursion involved 2 catamarans and 50 or so passengers. The time spent organising the mini bus loads of passengers at the meeting point and then the wharf and actually getting on to the boats was lengthy. Eventually the catamarans cast off and motored to the Coral Island. Once we got there one of the activities was cancelled due to high currents so we staggered across a floating walkway to the beach and went swimming, sat in shade, drank water until it was time to stagger back across the walkway to board the catamarans. Then motored back snacking on terrible food. Fishing lines were handed out and many people fished…”
