If you lack extreme adventures, just swim in the "Devil's Swimming Pool".

Bikini Atoll (Marshall Islands, Micronesia)
Nuclear radiation is not seen but dangerous.
Bikini Atoll which is located on Marshall Islands is a quiet place, free of dangerous wild creatures. It seems to be an ideal place for family vacation.
