The motor hums and the reef draws near — turquoise water opening like a door as the captain eases the skiff over shallow coral gardens. You step off the boat into warm Caribbean water, mask fogging for a second before a flash of orange and blue fish darts between hard corals. Later, the boat nudges up to Booby Cay and the scent of garlic butter and jerk smoke rises across a small, sun-baked sand strip. The day finishes with palms backlit by sunset and the crackle of DJ beats at Rick’s Café, where cliff jumps punctuate the horizon.
