Wander the tiny village on Zamami Island for a glimpse of local island style, tiny boutiques and small restaurants mingle with houses of the local residents.Great anchorages and moorings throughout the islands.
Also at certain times of the year, the Pacific Humpback whale makes these waters its home, closely monitored and protected, there is a great chance to see these whales at play.
