Book an excursion or hire the locals on the beach with their own boat. Scuba diving is practised but is more ideal for new divers since the waters are shallow. Shipwreck, coral formations, channels and tunnels can be admired.

Fishing tournaments draw international participants. Blue marlin, barracuda, and dorado are the main catches and is best during the summer months. Many excursions are available.
