We went in Dec/24 and brought our own masks. We walked from the cruiseport about 30-40 minutes. Lots to see along the way. We also stopped at a gas station and grabbed a couple cold drinks to take but there was a woman selling them there as well. We saw lots of fish along the breakwall and several sea turtles, which was very cool. There is a snorkel place that has tours leaving from there and you can rent equipment from them. They had several snorkel tours departing while we were there and there were lots like us that just did their own.
