There are so many interesting megafauna to see, such Thresher sharks, Whale sharks, turtles, schooling barracuda, and manta rays. Going to Sangalakki and being a part of the baby turtle release was one of the best things that happened to me. This was really important! The crew was great. The food and service were both great. I strongly suggest it!
