Did you enjoy your visit to the island? We enjoyed it, but the journey was quite long. How did you get there from the city? We took a bus to the harbour and then a ferry. Where did you stay during the visit? We stayed in a small guesthouse near the beach.

هل استمتعت بزيارتك للجزيرة؟ استمتعنا بها، لكن الرحلة كانت طويلة بعض الشيء. كيف وصلتم إليها من المدينة؟ استقللنا حافلة إلى الميناء ثم عبّارة. أين أقمتم أثناء الزيارة؟ أقمنا في بيت ضيافة صغير قرب الشاطئ.
