El Rio y Mar is only accessible by their own boat or a boat that the staff will call for you. Once you arrive in the airport - their shuttle bus will pick you up, then drive you to their boar dock - then from there you will be on a boat to the resort. The only way to visit the other island is for you to hire a boat - some of the resorts on islands will not let you on their island - unless you pay for a day fee ( not sure which ones) We paid for our transfer from the airport and the reverse as part of the resort rate. As for hiring the boats - its about 40 USD for the day to go further out and then plan on coming back to the resort not too late - the whole waterways is dark. When we were there in July 2018 - we didn't expect rain / monsoon so we had to account for those lost days as well.

When we were there the diving tours’ prices did not depend on the nr of guests. Which tours did you have in mind?

We tried to arrange things before getting there, but in the end, we arranged things very easily when there. We were able to have a lovely couple and child join us one day and for the diving, we joined two men and one woman who were also diving. It worked out very well for us. I was nervous waiting, but all was well.
