This day is private. We drive you north, leave you with shade and a plan for lunch, and agree the hour home. If you want it, we add Mnarani, the natural tidal aquarium where turtles are kept for rehabilitation \u2014 go in knowing it is an enclosure, not a wild encounter, and skip it if that is not for you.
