We saw turtles! - Great adventure! We took this experience in the first week of December. The weather was not ideal as water currents were strong and we are not strong swimmers. Pili and captain Eduardo were attentive throughout the trip. Pili took great care explaining the apparatus and making us practice at the dock. They were very diligent in showing us all the spots. We saw lots of fishes, reefs and a few turtles! Overall a great experience. My only suggestion is that for beginners and non-swimmers there needs to be fewer stops. Just the reef and turtle spot is sufficient. All 5 stops in choppy waters was not very conducive for beginners. Out of 8 people in our group only 3 ended up going to all 5.

Rocky start exceptional finish. - We didn't get the confirmation email, but we were on all the lists for pick up, snorkeling, and return so it all worked out. We had to push back one day due to weather, and it was well communicated through the TripAdvisor chat. With all that it had great views of wildlife and excellent guides. Would recommend!

Cancun adventure - So, there was a slight change to our trip plans because of the weather, but guess what? The tour company made sure we still had an amazing time in Cancun!

The shipwreck was the highlight for our family - We booked this because it wasn’t going to be an all day excursion. It was easy and we got to see some interesting things we hadn’t seen on our previous snorkeling trips. We especially liked the shipwreck portion of the tour because the water was super clear and it was fascinating how the marine life had made their homes around the sunken ship. We saw tons of fish and some stingrays and starfish. Unfortunately we didn’t see any sea turtles this trip, but that isn’t the fault of the tour operator. I’d recommend this tour if you are looking for a 1/2 day experience. We were able to do this with kids, the youngest being 7.

Pleasant sea trip - Thank you to Captain E and his crew for this small group activity. I enjoyed being accompanied in the water. The transfer from my hotel and the photographer in the water were real pluses.

A unique experience for us - You guys, it was beautiful! From pick up from our hotel to the boat, the snorckeling and all of the 4 the wonderful sites and all the beautiful creatures in the sea to dropping us off back to the hotel. We saw many beautiful tropical fish, rays both burried in the sand and swimming, barracudas, starfishes, corals and seaturtles!! This was so much more I had hoped for!! My children said this was the most beautiful experience of their lives! Our guide Deisy was super nice and attentive. We also bought the fotos that were taken at the trip. Amazing!!!! Worth every penny!

It was very fun! The tour... - It was very fun! The tour guide was great and the process was overall smooth. The time it took was a little longer than expected. Whole thing took about 5 hours. I was expecting closer to 3-4 hours. Half the people on the boat were sea sick, which had absolutely nothing to do with the tour, just letting others know to be aware. I never get sea sick and I was among those who were sick. Overall good time!

Saw a turtle - My daughter and I did this together along with 6 other people. The guide, boat operator and photographer were all very helpful and kind.

Daisy is great, the rest is not - It was disappointing. The boats are smaller than we expected and you can feel every wave. Daisy was extremely patient and helpful, but the snorkeling spots are very crowded. Less than expected.

Unprofessional company - The trip was canceled due to high winds, but I was able to schedule with another company. I have to wait 7-10 business days for a refund. Not good
