The sand is public. What the fares buy is a resort day pass with a chair, a shower and a restroom, and some leave the beach to you.

One post walks you through a first snorkel, one gathers the facts few visitors learn, and the last weighs an ATV day against a zipline. Longer planning pieces are in the guides.
