Mate also provides snorkeling equipment if you’d like to take a dip and go for a swim.

You’ll be provided with sandwiches and local wine, beer, and rakija (homemade moonshine). Your fishing license is covered and you’ll also be supplied with state-of-the-art rods and reels made by Okuma, Penn, and Shimano.
