    Excellent
    245 reviews•Google Maps

    What makes this snorkeling experience stand out is the intimate six-person maximum on the boat, which reviewers rave about compared to crowded tour boats. Families and couples consistently mention getting what feels like a private tour, especially during low season. The crew, including captains like Zoey, Grace, and Flo, along with guides like Paul, Cedric, and Liv, earn glowing praise for being friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely attentive to each guest's comfort level. First-time snorkelers specifically mention feeling well cared for and never rushed. The wildlife sightings are consistently impressive. Nearly every review mentions seeing sea turtles up close, with frequent bonus encounters including spinner dolphins, spotted eagle rays, octopus, and colorful reef fish. The guides seem to know exactly where to find marine life and take time to point out different species. Families traveling with kids as young as seven had great experiences, and the crew accommodates various skill levels, even helping nervous swimmers feel confident in the water.

    My husband and I went on the snorkeling trip with them, and it was super fun. I like how small group it was with only 5 people so the diver Liv can really took us around in the water and introduced very little things. She even showed us and let us try dive down deeper which I never tried before! Thankful for both Captain Flow and Ryan! They were super nice and chill and equipment are all very clean, if you don’t have snorkeling gear don’t worry they have it for you! I am very glad we went on this trip with them!
