Hole in the Rock tour with Great Sights
A hike on one of the islands. Beautiful! Got here via the Rock overnight cruise. During the day you snorkel and then hike on one of the islands. The caption chooses different ones depending on mood, and thus was the beautiful one we got to explore. HIGHLY recommend the rock overnight cruise. So much fun!
