No Experience Required

You step off the pier at first light and the sea opens like a promise: a ribbon of turquoise between jagged limestone towers, longtail prows cutting wakes as gulls wheel overhead. The day unfolds as a sequence of small, perfect places — a crescent of white sand at Ma Tang Ming, a clear lagoon where coral gardens crowd the shallows, the iconic rock of Chicken Island jutting from calm water, and the shallow sandbar that links Tub Island at low tide.
