Yes we do! And we will try our best to try and spot some for you, but keep in mind that they are an endangered species and are limited in numbers. You will not be permitted to feed them, touch them, chase them or in any other way interfere with what they are doing. We believe in sustainable tourism. We love and care about our ecosystem and the wildlife that inhabits it. We hope to raise awareness to hopefully reverse the damage that's been done to sensitive ecosystems around the world. Our islands are beautiful and we want to share that beauty with YOU, and generations to come :-) .
