The fact is that the beaches of Naboka have one more feature: they are very flat .In order to find yourself at a depth where you can swim without scratching your knees, you need to walk along shallow water for a long time .At the same time through time in the water begin to meet coral elevations, so that you should choose the path very carefully .Naturally, during the excitement of the sea to enter the water without injury is problematic .Even in the calm here it is better to swim in special "coral" slippers .To make entering into the waves as simple and convenient as possible, literally every hotel has long, sometimes up to 800 m, or high pontoons and piers .They can be sunbathed, lying on the sun loungers arranged in the same place, from them dive into the sea, descending on the staircase .If the waves are high, then you can easily wash the swimmers off the steps and take out on the coral reefs - be extremely careful!

The third feature of bathing in Nabka is a pronounced change in tides. In this case, too, gain pontoons, for which you can "catch up" the left water.

The beaches themselves stretch along the whole coastline with a broad, sometimes narrow strip .Some places go down to the sea terraces, and sections at sea level at some hotels are small and in addition are occupied by stones .Nevertheless, they are all equipped with sunshades and sunshades, sun loungers and deck chairs .As elsewhere, the best places by the sea should be occupied strongly in advance, getting up early in the morning or paying beach workers, so that they took a lounger in advance .To the beaches there are free shuttle buses .The last flights are most often crowded with people, and their schedule in a number of hotels leaves much to be desired: the transport runs every hour or less .All this does not matter, since from the most remote hotel to the beaches go on an excellent path for a maximum of 20 minutes .
