Great experience - We had such a great experience with Shawn! She was knowledgeable about the reef and very conscientious about our safety. She clearly loves the reef and was as excited as us when we saw a nurse shark and sea turtle. Everything went smoothly- from checking in, getting fitted for equipment, the actual snorkeling, and driving/parking near the beach. Thank you for a great time!

Best snorkel trip! - We've been on a few snorkeling tours in PR and this one has been our favorite so far! Claire was so knowledgeable and kind, she made the trip amazing. She has us laughing and learning at the same time. She answered all of our questions and pointed out all of her favorite coral and fish. Great tour and duration for the price. You're left in the marina area with plenty of places to eat drink and shop after. We also opted to rent snorkel gear for an additional affordable fee to try it out on our own. Absolutely loved every minute of it, thank you!

Excellent no-hassle snorkel adventure - Gregg was a great guide and gave us the knowledge and confidence to go on our own unguided adventure the next day. Once you do an excursion they will rent you the gear for a very reasonable daily price.

Wonderful! - OK, so our guide, Tiger, was absolutely amazing! This was my 11 year old son and I's first time going snorkeling, and it was so great! Tiger was so patient with him (and me lol). I'm not sure how enjoyable the experience would have been with a different guide. We experienced a morning dive, and the water was so clear and gorgeous. We saw beautiful coral, fish, and other sea life. I regret not renting the underwater cam to capture our experience, but this experience will forever live on in our memories. Thank you, Tiger, for helping us to create such a beautiful memory together!

Fun morning snorkeling! - Greg was a great guide. Love that we were in a reserve so we didn't need to worry about boats or obstacles. Saw a lot of fish, coral and sealife. Would recommend!

Great excursion for beginners and vets - Greg was a friendly and knowledgable guide, and the excursion was a ton of fun. Saw plenty of wildlife, including one of the resident sea turtles. I'm an experienced snorkeler, while my girlfriend had never snorkeled before. We both had a great time. Would definitely recommend.

Late morning snorkeling in party of 7 plus Guide Claire. Wonderful soft coral. - Guide Claire was terrific. Don’t forget to use a red filter for any underwater photos, even for snorkeling. I had forgotten—so many photos required heavy editing.

If you're a beginner don't take this tour!!!! - This was the absolutely worse experience I have had with any type of guide. Giovanni was totally disconnected. He ran through instructions at the center, got in his car and told us to follow, if not we could take a shot of a barcode and take directions to the place on our own. By the time the 3 carswith customers had exited the lot onto a busy street he was long gone. When we arrived at the beach we had to find him. He didn't wait for us he just went on to the beach. By the time we were unloaded from the car and found him he was in the water with 3 of the 6 customers quite a distance from shore. This was a beginners group so folks didn't even know how to walk on the sand in flippers as he said to do. One woman fell back and just missed cracking her head against some rocks. He was so far out of range he failed to see any of this. I personally had issues with the mask and could not get it to fit withou water coming in. so I ended up not going out at all. By the time the actviity ended 2 of the customers had made thier way back to shore, ALONE, since they too had equipment issues that were unattended while Giovanni remained totally absorbed with 3 customers. It was clear to me that he had no concern for any of us, either we followed on our own or got ignored. This is a potentially dangerous activity and his irresponsbility was almost criminal. Disaster!! Disaster!! Disaster!!

High winds - Unfortunately, it was canceled cause of bad weather. This is the only reason I rated it so low, not cause we experienced the snorkeling.
