If you want to take your time to see the attractions (the Tchou Tchou train is sometimes a bit short at some stops) then rent one of these! Great fun to drive and always fun to do your own thing for a more "local" experience.

I have Snorkeled and Scuba Dived all over the world for over 50 years. This is absolutely the best Snorkeling I have ever experienced!!! SCHOOLS of beautiful fish and healthy vibrant corals of MANY varieties!!! It changes ever 50' or so as you move around and change your location. Yes it is hard on your feet and requires a water taxi that you should prepay, and finding shade will be an issue, but totally worth it!!! Not for Beach combers. We are going on another cruise just to return here and experience this amazing place again. The number, variety, and beauty of the marine life here is unequaled by any place else I have ever been!!!

Waiting room in front & to the right of International Terminal. Friendly, helpful staff,French, English spoken.Waiting room air con with comfortable chairs, cold water. Much cheaper, quicker if you pre book online. Recommended, would use again. Hotel drop off/ pick up, lots of time before International flights.
