Day 19 - Snorkeling Adventure at Baby Beach

प्रकाशित: 30.01.2024

Day 19 (August 24, 2023)

So, we have built in 2 buffer days. The first one today, because the rain now seems to be over and we can plan trips to the beach again.

We decided yesterday that we wanted to head south to Baby Beach early this morning.

Our red guest cat greets us in the morning and wants to cuddle. She demonstratively sits down on the chair at the breakfast table and jumps onto my daughter's lap. A cute cat, it will be difficult to say goodbye.

We reach Baby Beach around 10am. There's already a lot going on here, the parking lot is almost full and the best spots under the few umbrellas/huts on the beach are already gone. We manage to get an umbrella a little further away from the beach, but that doesn't matter. So we have our peace and shade. Fits!

Today the sea is beautiful turquoise and clear again. Armed with a snorkel set and camera, I venture into the water and first turn left into a kind of lagoon. In addition to colorful fish, we see an octopus here (scary, you can only see the eye looking out of the crack in the rock) and again a stonefish, which is damn well camouflaged in the shallow water (although there is no beach or sandy bottom here, so the danger is very high low to actually hit it while swimming or splashing around).

I then venture into the bay with my daughter along the side of the lagoon and we swim into deeper water, where we see large fan corals on the bottom. In the shallow area where there is sea grass on the bottom we see two turtles. How cool!

After more than an hour of snorkeling, we bring the snorkel gear back and splash around in the shallow water in the bay. Here, too, many people sit in groups in the water, with beer bottles and other spirits in their hands, music boxes on the beach and party.

We chill here until 5:30 p.m., then we pack our things and leave Baby Beach. It was definitely worth coming here again.

On the way home we meet two donkeys who curiously come to the car window and let themselves be petted. They're probably hoping for a snack, but unfortunately we don't have anything left to offer.
