Last day snorkelling and kayaking at Isla Coiba

We woke up to yet another amazing morning. Malene having spent at least one hour staying awake listening to "mysterious noises" outside the tent after Mikkel had mentioned that he heard "something" outside the tent. It turned out the noises were not from the crocodile but from something whose footprints looked like it belonged to a small opossum.

Today the plan was to pack camp - which we did before breakfast, have the boat come and load all our stuff, head to the ranger camp, leave the kayaks and then snorkel at two different beaches. We paddled slowly back to the ranger station, left the kayaks, boarded the boat and 10 minutes later we were at a small island where we snorkelled around the reef and the entire island for about an hour. The other guys who where on our trip headed the opposite direction of us saw a few turtles and rays - we had the "aquarium" experience once again being surrounded by thousands and thousands of fish at one end of the reef. This place is simply so amazing.  Being Sunday the beach and the island got a bit busy with more boats and people arriving. We left for the last beach, heading to the far eastern area of Isla Coiba National Park, and had a beach all to ourselves for the last snorkelling this time and the last lunch. While Adam set up food we snorkelled the reef for 45 minutes - once again amazing.

We had lunch and headed back to Santa Catalina arriving there at 3 PM, unloaded the boat, said bye to the other guys, headed for our hostel and had a much needed shower to get rid of the dirt and salt water. Having decided to leave Santa Catalina a day early we had to pack everything for an early departure. Pizza and tiramisu for dinner at restaurant next door. Nice to eat at a table and think about the last four days of amazing experiences in Santa Catalina and Isla Coiba. We are now officially snorkelled-out. We enjoyed every second of it though. Would like to come back here one day.
