Sharp Island Coral Reef Guided Tour | Clear Bottom Kayak
From: $690.00
About this tour:
- In the Sharp Island Coral Reef Guided Tour, we will first take you to the island by boat. Our experienced guide will then lead you to the tombolo of Sharp Island, where you can explore the nearby coral reef just beneath the waves. This long, unbroken coral reef is teeming with colorful marine life, and you can observe it all from the clear bottom of a kayak.
- Sharp Island’s most distinctive feature is the tombolo, a narrow strip of land made of rocks and sand on its western side. With our clear bottom kayak, you can see many corals of different colors and shapes. The wavy, undulating cactus coral (Pavona spp.) is one of them, where fish, crabs, and sea urchins sometimes hide within its folds. You may also spot large spheres of elaborately grooved brain coral (Platygyra spp.) and delicately swaying bowl coral (Turbinaria spp.). Stripy sergeant fish, schools of yellow-tailed Chinese demoiselles, multi-colored wrasses, and various vivid butterfly fish also live among the coral.
