The vibe

Where fishermen feed the sea turtles

A working fishermen's beach, not a sunbathing one — boats are pulled up on the sand and at midday the cleaning station draws green sea turtles right to the shoreline. Slip on a mask and you'll meet them face to face. Respect the fishermen and the turtles, and don't feed the wildlife yourself.
