Overview
What to expect
Pungume is a small, unspoilt island in the Menai Bay Conservation Area, far from the busy tour routes. The boat ride along the south-west coast is part of the fun.
Snorkel the surrounding reef when the sea allows, swim off the white sand and relax on the sandbank that appears at low tide — then enjoy a seafood lunch with fresh fruit and soft drinks.
