Great snorkel experience in Lauderdale - The reef is very accessible and the number of fish was incredible. Our guide Daniel did a great job showing us the best spots and pointed out various sea life. He also did a great job taking pictures so we all left with the memories recorded.

July 2024 - We had a great time. There were two other groups with us. Daniel met us on the beach and provided all needed equipment. You swim out from the beach. I recommend you take the optional float vest. It’s too deep to stand and it was helpful to have when I needed to adjust my mask. You swim for about an hour. You just leave your stuff on the beach and you pay to park nearby.

Amazing! Book this trip. - Wonderful snorkeling experience. The guide provided a great introduction to the area and what to expect. Additionally the guide took great photos of what we saw and provided these at the end. It was a very relaxing activity and we saw so many fish! Highly recommend booking this activity.

Best snorkle ever! - We had an absolute amazing time with Daniel. He is a down to earth man who cares more about the people he takes out than a dollar and that makes the most memorable experience. Very knowledgeable!!! Learned so much about our eastern shore reef with him! Thank you Daniel!!

Outstanding guides, tour, and great for 1st time snorklers - I had a great time. The guide and his assistant were safe, helpful, down to earth and gave great instruction. This was my first time snorkeling they made it seem so easy. They took about 100 pictures of our tour over the reef. He sent them to us for free. The pictures were awesome. Highly recommend!! They made this my new favorite thing to do.

No fun left after 5 minutes - Took my 15 year boys for a scuba experience and the instructor took off left the boys who were having equipment issues and needed more attention. It was pretty wavy and the water was coming in their snorkel. They walked out of the ocean after 5 minutes just was not fun for them. One of the boys snorkeled before and said this experience was awful.

Tour provider canceled 7 minutes before tour started - Disappointing experience - the tour provider contacted us seven minutes before the tour was going to start to cancel due to weather. We understand the need to cancel if conditions aren’t right, but we would have appreciated more notice. We had already arrived and paid to park, and we had a guest with us who had driven 40 minutes to participate.

Devastated Teen - they canceled twice - I’d love to make a great review, but all I got was charged just for them to cancel for “rough ocean conditions” (usually the morning is the best ocean conditions so we were confused) TWICE and have to wait 5-7 days for my refunds which we will be gone by then so I can’t even pay for something else. But we found another snorkeling activity so not sure what ocean conditions they were looking at that was so bad, because we had a great time with someone else.

Disappointed, our guide didn't contact us or turn up to let us know that it was cancelled - We turned up at the specified meeting place 30 minutes early. We found the location on the beach where the trip should start and parked our car for 3 hours at a cost of $16, no one appeared by the 9am start time so we checked with the owner of the beach cafe that we were at the right place. He confirmed that we were but said often the organisers arrive a bit late. So we had a coffee each ($12 for two coffees!) at the beach cafe whilst we waited for someone to turn up, at 9.30 still no one arrived, we had not received any messages from anyone so we concluded that our event had been cancelled but we had not been informed.
We felt annoyed at let down that we had not been contacted to advise us of the cancellation , we had got up early, spent money unnecessarily on fuel and coffee and wasted half a morning of our precious holiday for absolutely nothing, our holiday time is important to us and wasting half a day driving and waiting around was not acceptable
