    If you’re staying at Sea Shell Coral Cove you can walk to the jetty and catch the next local ferry they leave roughly every 30 to 45 minutes.

An extra tip is to bring a small inflatable raft or beach ball; it keeps the little ones entertained while you set up a picnic and lets them paddle in the shallow water.
