Here is what a curious observant said: "Amani-y Beach is a leisure destination that is coveted by lovers of white sand and the bluish surface of the sea. The wind caressing the leaves of coconut palms; the rays of the sun striking the moving surface of the sea, and the sand trampled under the feet of the visitors ... Here, we are in an exotic setting, inviting us to throw ourselves body and soul in the tenderness arms of mother nature. It's relaxation time in the most pleasant way."

Another experienced diver had this to say: "The diving at Amani-y is remarkable and unique. On the east end of the beach, walking out to chest -high water brings you to a dramatic drop-off, a wall going down hundreds of meters. At about 120 feet, a series of giant sponges begins. Making this dive easy is the fact that to the immediate west, a gradual slope takes you up to 30 feet, then 15-20, then ten feet or less, so decompression can be done in a very exciting and relaxing way. The shallower water is perfect snorkeling for non-divers."
