Best service ever. - Erik and Ryan were absolutely amazing! They were energetic, entertaining and accommodating. Even playing Elvis for my 81 year old mother. She did not snorkel and they kept her entertained while we snorkelled. Wonderful ride and beautiful fish while snorkelling.

Great Experience - It was a great experience and would definitely recommend this to others! You get to snorkel for a little over an hour and get a tour around the coast and into the deep ocean.

Great value, fun trip! - We went on the snorkeling tour with Eric and Lacey and we had a great time! They were a lot of fun. We saw dolphins, a ton of fish and the sea caves on the way back. We would definitely go again! The pineapple was a nice addition and not expected 🍍

Lots of fun & time to snorkel’ - We were lost at first because there was no signage, but we figured out just to chill by the bathrooms. The trip was phenomenal and high-energy fun. We had lots of snorkeling time, which is exactly what we wanted. Eric & Lacey rocked!
