More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step onto a low-slung speedboat before sunrise, the engine humming underfoot and spray cutting cool arcs across the deck. Within an hour the coastline is behind you and towers of limestone rise from the sea—sheer cliffs streaked with green where rainwater has gouged the rock. The day moves as a sequence of places: mangrove-fringed caves to paddle, a compact fishing village on stilts, broad white beaches, and shallow reefs alive with fish.
