You get there by speedboat from Dominican Republic and spend a few delicious hours treading the crystal white sands and swimming amongst the fabulous tropical fish that expect you to feed them your sandwiches! There are jellyfish but they are harmless and don't sting you. Quite an amazing experience but remember to sit at the REAR of the speedboat. We sat at the front which is a spine-jarring rough ride.
