Throughout the tour, you will have a friendly guide who will give you the three necessary instructions to swim over the reef without hurting it

1. It is important to wear a lifejacket during the whole time, to be floating on the surface and not to go down, for two reasons, so you don’t damage the reef while swimming and also for personal safety.

3. Stay together as a group throughout the tour and do not go swimming in another direction. In addition, you should stay close to the guide since he will show you some sea species and later on he/she will give special information about them.
