This sunken caldera is a great spot for snorkeling. You will see large schools of tropical fish near the vertical walls. If you are lucky, you may even spot a manta Ray or hammerhead.
Walking along the coral sands and bustling seabirds of Darwin Bay, you will find yourself surrounded by them. Follow the trail to see nesting frigatebirds and gulls. You will want to capture some photos of your feathered friends so bring your camera.
