What a beauty!
Our second day here at Matamanoa. I just can't describe how beautiful it is here. It is quite romantic and so many places to find peace and quiet. Most of the couples here are on honeymoon or celebrating something special. The best thing about this island is the many different activities they have to do here, and it is all free!

Yesterday we went snorkeling and it was awesome. It was like looking at a huge fish tank with a 30 foot cliff. So many different and colorful fish! I was hoping to see a turtle, but no. We will try again today.

Jeff also went hand line fishing (I was going to go but did not feel like being on a rocky boat). He caught a barracuda, and a red coral trout. They let him bring the trout to the resort and they will cook it for us for lunch today. That is so cool 😊

This morning, we went for a run on the beach. We were trying to get to the secluded "sunset beach" but the tide was too high and we had to turn back. We saw some cute blue crabs and hermit crabs

on the rocks.

Then we decided to go climb up the top of the mountain. The cliff was very steep and there was not many things to hold on to! When we got to the top, there was a huge rock to climb. We got up there and the view was spectacular. We have many pictures to show 😊 Hopefully we will have a chance to download them soon.
