Cains is a small touristy village. You get picked up by a giant Trimaran - with three hulls - and are taken off to a floating installation off the coast. |

There is a giant float - where you just walk into the water. We went snorkliing - as this is easily accessable. Just Dip and Swim. |

The corals have more color than these shots. Also I bought an under water instamatic camera - Good for one trip only. The main problem was that I keopt drifting up to the surface. Picture to rignt - my beautiful bald spot - which is larger than I thought. . |
