1.5 Hours
Up to 6 people
Fins, mask, snorkel
Snorkel above the 160-foot Sea Tiger shipwreck and watch for turtles, dolphins, tuna, and sharks at the surface. Enjoy a semi-private experience with up to 6 guests as guides share ocean conservation and local fishing traditions.
Ages 8+ only. Arrive 30 minutes early with a completed online waiver; bring a swimsuit and water. Wildlife sightings are not guaranteed.
Can we touch the fish, sharks, or turtles?
Absolutely not. We are only here to observe the behaviors of the marine animals. Touching the animals may cause harm to them as you will learn in our conservation speech.
How close can I get to the wildlife?
State rules is that we stay 10-15ft away from the turtles. We are entering into their homes and so will respect their space.
I'm scared of the open ocean and sharks, what do I do?
The amazing thing about this tour is that we are all lifeguard, CPR & First Aid certified & that safety is our #1 priority. Our crew will be sure to help you get over your fear of the open ocean and the wrongful image of sharks.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before start. Full refund if operator cancels due to weather or unforeseen circumstances. No-shows are charged in full. The boat may wait up to 15 minutes past tour time before departing.

Captain Phil and Holly (or Mandy) run intimate small-group snorkeling tours that consistently blow away visitors who've done the big cattle-boat excursions. Reviewers rave about the personal attention and how it feels like exploring the ocean with knowledgeable friends rather than being herded around with strangers. The small boat means no waiting for gear, no crowds bumping into you underwater, and the crew can actually tailor the experience to your comfort level. The marine life encounters are impressive—turtles are practically guaranteed, with regular dolphin sightings and shark snorkeling options over shipwrecks. Holly gets special praise for her underwater videography skills, capturing footage you'll actually want to keep. What sets this operation apart is the genuine commitment to ocean conservation and respectful wildlife interaction, which experienced snorkelers particularly appreciate. Yes, it costs more than budget tours, but multiple reviews emphasize the quality difference is absolutely worth it. Perfect for first-timers and experienced snorkelers alike.
If you're looking for a private/semi private tour then look no further. Holli and Phillip were great guides. My wife and I are experienced swimmers but have never snorkeled in the ocean before. They made us feel safe and informed prior to starting the day. As environmentally conscious people ourselves, we appreciated the care that was taken to explain how to enjoy our time safely without harming the turtles or all the other life in the reef. Holli was also a very skilled videographer and captured wonderful footage of us as well as some reef celebrities as they appeared. She did a great job calling out opportunities as they came up. While I understand it is a little more expensive than some of the larger tours, you will not be disappointed with the difference in quality and care. I wish them both the best, both as professionals and as people.
