“It is a beautiful island with a couple of stops at different parts of Suluada. It is touristy and there are a lot of people, but I knew that was the expectation and this was a cost effective way of seeing a very pretty island. Bring water shoes if possible, some of those rocks are uncomfortable to walk on the beach and near the shoreline in the ocean.”
