Amazing - The guides were great, the whole experience was amazing, but be aware that going the meeting point better be with a car, otherwise is too complicated.

Diving with the blue diving centre - It was an incredible experience and apparently we were very lucky in what we found! Our Guide, Nico, was flawless and helped with everything we needed. I can say the same about our skipper Rodrigo! I recommend 100% the blue diving centre at the tip of São Lourenço to those looking for an excellent diving experience!

Enjoyed time out! - The operators took great care of all participants! I've seen some fish. The snorkeling area alone was breathtaking. Finally, a monk seal greeted us. The 35 euros were definitely worth it! The hole in the Neo was really happy to be ignored! Thank you again!

A nice excursion in a beautiful area - A fun afternoon where we saw lots of beautiful fish. The wetsuits were new and excellent quality and the experience was slick and ran on time. The two chaps that took us out were professional and fun. Afterwards one went through the fish we may have seen with me using a book. Only disappointment was our son left his trainers in the changing room and despite me phoning and messaging no one returned my messages. Eventually I did manage to speak to someone who told me they weren’t there but we decided to drive all the way back anyway and they were there! 2 days later exactly where we said! However this didn’t detract from an excellent trip just the overall experience.

Great! I highly recommend for everyone whether you can snorkel or not. - Nice and kind stuff. Our main guide , ocean biologist Natasha described us all of animals we can met and was our support during time in water. We saw mamy of local fish and during way to Garajau we saw dolphins and on way back monk seal.

Don’t waste your time - We really didn’t see much of anything. Could be because of the current or could be because the snorkel gear was repeatedly getting fogged up. Myself and others had a hard time seeing through them and we expected more out of a diving place. The wetsuits kept us warm, but they were so ripped up they kept falling off. We couldn’t find the place because you can only see the sign when coming down the hill. Took us 15 minutes to find the place and when we did, the lady just rudely told us “it’s on the website. There’s a video” and seemed like it was our fault we couldn’t find the place. We received no message after booking at all saying to arrive early for putting on the wetsuits or where to meet. We booked through Trip Advisor, not the website, so we saw no video nor did we receive a message with a video. Very little talking on the boat with instructions and no one got in the water to guide you over to wherever the fish were. Once I got out of the water and only then, did one of the guys show me a book with the different types of fish. Worst snorkeling experience I’ve ever had. Would not recommend washing your time. Best part was just the boat ride going over there.
