The Atlandis Top 3 'Things to Do'
Anibare Bay
As the largest bay in the district, Anibare Bay draws tourists and naturalists with its unusual physical features and its 2 km (1.2 mi) long beach. Shaped by underwater volcanic activity, the protected bay is extremely safe for swimming.
Central Plateau
