Utilised the services of "Captain tamas lagoon cruise" to move along the beach waters. The cruise started around 10:30 AM and it was ended around 3:00 PM. The water was sky blue and very clear water. In the transparent bottom of the boat we could see lots fish movement, when the boat was stopped in the ocean. Did snorkeling.
In the AN, the cruise stopped for lunch and other entertainment. The lunch was quite satisfactory.The crew were really hilarious and entertained us with songs. They have talked about coconut trees and demonstrated dehusking of coconut, breaking it, grating of coconut, extracting coconut milk and their uses. They have also demonstrated the method of climbing the coconut tree and plucking a coconut. It was quite educative for tourists from Australia and New Zealand. However, for Indians like me, it was nothing new since coconut trees grown in India and we are quite conversant with all the products and activities associated with coconuts. They have also demonstrated the method of dressing by the local community and it was quite educative to everyone. On the whole, it is an that one should not miss if there is an opportunity to visit Rarothonga...

Did not feel safe or welcomed here.
