OVERVIEW

Cruise to Starfish Point for a relaxing beach break and continue on to a nearby natural reserve where you may see wildlife in the mangroves that line the shore. While cruising across the typically calm waters of the North Sound, you can toast the upcoming adventure with a glass of champagne while enjoying the spectacular tropical views. Although Starfish Point features a gorgeous beach – which you will be free to enjoy at your leisure – it may be even more well-known for the countless starfish that live in the shallows just offshore. They will be easy to spot if you wade out in the crystal-clear water. Other marine life and wildlife is also abundant in the nearby mangroves. As you cruise through this environmentally protected area, the guide may describe how the mangroves filter sediments, stabilize the shorelines and provide a nesting and breeding habitat for water birds and fish.

HIGHLIGHTS
