The BoatMen also double as your Tourist Guide!
This is the Pier or the Docking Station.
You will be given a number when you paid your rented boat.
This is where you wait for your assigned boat.
You just wait here for your boat to dock.
This is the boat we rented.
Off we go for our Honda Bay Island Hopping!
Safety first! Everyone will be required to wear a Life Vest Jacket!
In our case, we brought our own Life Vests!
This is the first stop.
This is a snorkeling place.
You see different corals and types fish.
Your Boatman will guide you around the snorkeling area.
This is one of the islands were we stayed.
While in an island, you can snorkel and feed the fish.
You need to buy some bread for feeding.
Your Boatman / Tourist Guide will usually instruct you on what you need.
This is at the Snake Island.
The Snake Island is a long sandbar that slithers on the surface of the sea,
very much like it's namesake.
This is still in the Snake Island.
This is a very good snorkeling site, where we are able to have
a very close encounter with different species of fish.
The fish are already very much accustomed to
having tourists feeding them.
They just mingle with you while you feed them.
In some cases, you are able to touch them
and they even bite some bread off your hands!

Just enjoy the freshness and beauty of nature!
