The boat eases away from shore and the sugar-white beaches of Bávaro fall into a low horizontal line. Salt spray lifts and the Atlantic opens, the reef crest bobbing like a shadowed seam beneath clear water. Onboard, the crew runs a quick safety briefing; soon the motoramaran slows and the sea invites you into the shallows where coral gardens and tropical fish wait.
