2-hour private session — your group only, no strangers mixed in. Minimum 2 people. Includes insurance, gear, and photos/video (free to keep via your phone). When the session is at Wanlitung, you can keep using the snorkeling gear on your own after the instructor wraps up. If conditions are poor, the instructor will take your group to Houbihu or Howan at no extra charge — but you must return together and can't stay behind.

A 2–3 hour guided SUP adventure to the hidden coral reef waters of Houbihu and Little Bali. No swimming required — stand, sit, lie down, or just float. Pets ride free; bring your own pet life vest. Shuttle from the meeting point to the secret beach is included.

Sessions: 07:00 sunrise · 10:00 morning · 14:00 afternoon. Add-ons: drone aerial footage ($500/1 · $800/2 · $1,500/4–5 pax); mermaid costume ($300/person). Not suitable for guests with heart conditions, high blood pressure, or pregnancy.

Our partner dive shop Sharkenting is literally next door — same row of buildings. Change into your swimwear, walk downstairs and over, get a lesson from the instructor, hop on their shuttle to the dive site, dive, and get dropped back at the guesthouse to shower and sleep. Zero logistics on your end.
