Rainy day didn't spoil our trip, highly recommend this company - It rained and the trip was delayed so be sure to check your email and viator messages if its raining that day. Despite the rain, we had an amazing trip. The crew was so kind and helpful. The food was good including gluten free sandwiches for me! The snorkeling was definitely some of the best in the world. The deserted island stops were perfect, especially for the younger kids aboard who could run around and play together in the shallows. It was a tough day with rain chasing us around but the captain and crew made it fun.

Great service! - Reggie and Michael were outstanding! My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. We got to see a lobster in its hole, a conch and beautiful fish on the reef.

Great half day tour - Pleasant sunny weather. Crew was courteous, friendly and relaxed. It's easy to sell the beautiful blue water and smooth sand of Providenciales.

So glad we did this tour!!! - I'm so glad we did this tour! We were here for a family wedding, but this really rounded out the trip. The crew was amazing. I have never snorkeled before and it took me a good 10 minutes to get the hang of it. A member of the crew stayed with me until I was ready to swim off on my own. I loved it and was sad when it was time to get back on the boat. They took very good care of all of their guests. The music and food were fun, and they even helped families pose for scenic family photos. They beach they took us to on the way back was the absolute best, so peaceful and pretty.

Best catamaran tour ever - WOW this is a must book experience in Turks & Caicos. The captain and staff are so friendly and hilarious, they made the whole excursion incredible. You get to snorkel in the beautiful ocean and you get to enjoy a private beach. All of the experiences were timed perfectly and didn’t feel rushed. 10000% would book again.

Great experience - We had a great time! They were Very hospitable, and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend!i. The only thing I would suggest is they let people know that beaches resort won’t let anyone on there area for the pick up location. We had to find another location, and it was stressful.

Good tour, but irresponsible tour industry in Turks - The departure was delayed by an hour due to weather... which we were informed of 10 minutes before the pickup time (not great). Crew was friendly and generally competent. We saw a lot on the reef, Trumpet fish, Trigger fish, various Parrot Fish, Squirrel fish, nothing big (Sharks, Turtles, etc..), but there was still enough to make the trip worth while.
My issue is, the reef we went to there were no mooring buoys. The cat dropped its anchor directly onto the reef, with the line damaging a foot long section of the coral. I've seen what irresponsible commercialisation of reefs for tourism has done in Hurghada, I will not support the same thing happening here. I cannot recommend anyone take one of the Snorkelling tours from this operator, or any of the others, until moorings are installed, and further damage to the reef is prevented.
