Upon reaching the park, we anchored near a pristine beach, its white sands glistening under the sun. Snorkeling gear in hand, I plunged into the crystal-clear waters, eager to explore the vibrant marine life below. Swimming alongside sea turtles and colorful reef fish was an experience that left me in awe of the ocean’s wonders. It was a reminder of why I fell in love with the sea in the first place.
