Boat Day

If you've ever been on a WITTS Small Group Trip before, you already know that one of the best things to do is to spend time out on the water. So today, we'll have a private catamaran chartered for the whole day, which will take us to secluded beaches and offer snorkeling at the famed Stingray City, where you can swim with the sting rays. If you're not up for swimming with sting rays, no worries--you'll just enjoy some fun and relaxation in the beautiful Caribbean sun. You'll have free time in the evening to go into town or walk to a nearby restaurant.
