点评:We joined the day-long dugong tour, from 7am to 4pm. The center makes it clear there is about an 80% chance to see a dugong, and we appreciated this honesty along with their respect for the wildlife. Even without a dugong sighting, the trip includes two guaranteed stops at beautiful reefs that are worth the journey.
The guides were excellent. Brando was a thoughtful leader who gave clear communication and helpful advice, and Benny brought great energy throughout the day.
The ride to the dugong location is about two hours each way on a large boat, with tea, food, and a bathroom on board. We enjoyed riding on the roof for the views and to help with motion sensitivity, and even managed a nap on the way back.
We were lucky to see a dugong. Guests (there were 10 on our trip) go in small groups of four at a time and spend about 10 to 15 minutes observing and following the animal. The water is deep and the waves can roll, so be prepared, but the guides are experienced and reassuring, pulling less experienced swimmers on floatation devices. To witness such a magical creature in its natural environment was truly special.
Overall, Dugong Dive Center delivers a respectful and unforgettable experience. Highly recommended.
翻译:我们参加了全天的儒艮之旅,从早上7点到下午4点。中心明确表示,看到儒艮的几率大约是80%,我们很欣赏他们的坦诚以及他们对野生动物的尊重。即使没有看到儒艮,行程也保证会在美丽的珊瑚礁停留两次,绝对值得一游。
导游们非常出色。Brando是一位体贴周到的领队,他沟通清晰,提供了实用的建议;Benny则一整天都充满活力。
乘坐大型游船前往儒艮观赏点单程大约需要两个小时,船上提供茶水、食物和卫生间。我们喜欢坐在屋顶上欣赏美景,也有助于缓解运动障碍,回程时甚至还小憩了一会儿。
我们很幸运地看到了儒艮。我们一行10人,每次分成四人小组,花大约10到15分钟观察和跟随这只动物。水深浪急,所以要做好准备。不过,经验丰富的导游会用漂浮装置拉着游泳经验不足的游客,让人安心。在自然环境中亲眼目睹如此神奇的生物,真是太特别了。
总而言之,儒艮潜水中心提供了一次令人敬畏且难忘的体验。强烈推荐。
