Know before you go
- In Cape Vidal, snorkeling adventures are restricted to the low tide and therefore meeting times vary from day to day
- The local partner will contact you about the exact meeting time
- If you would like to spend the day in the park, the supplier suggests you bring a picnic lunch as there is only a small basic shop in Cape Vidal
