Bring your swimmers and have a paddle in the warm sheltered water, or just sun bathe on the beautiful beaches. There are a few vendors on the island serving crab curry and occasionally, a cold beer (you might like to pack your own.) A boat to Rabbit Island will cost you $15 for a return trip. Make sure to protect yourself from the sun as most boats don't have shelter.
