Blue Lagoon Island Beach

I had a fantastic half-day trip that, in my opinion, was definitely worth it. The ship and crew were excellent and made me feel at ease. The island staff provided lunch, which, although not extraordinary, was satisfactory. The water was crystal clear and pleasantly warm, and the island's surroundings were stunning to behold. There were numerous activities available, but depending on the package you choose, you might have to pay extra for additional options. I opted for the basic package, which allowed me to swim and admire the lighthouse/tower.

There are few offers for accommodation in the beach area, so finding a suitable place to stay can be a problem. You can use the map search to get more information about this.
