Best day ever! - This excursion was totally worth the money. It had such great value. The activities were so fun. We took a boat to our own private island. There were a few other groups there but it wasn’t crowded. We were able to snorkel and saw a lot of cool fish. There was a sunken boat and airplane and some other sculptures that really attracted the fish. The guides were super nice and even helped strap our feet in lol. From there we went to meet the iguanas and that was definitely my favorite part. The guy running the iguana area was so nice and pleasant to be around. He was gentle and caring with the iguanas and even let me hold one. The iguanas were so cute and friendly. They loved the food we gave them and didn’t mind being close to humans. After we were done with the activities we went to have Bahamian food. It was delicious and authentic. Boned chicken with yummy sauce and fried fish with rice. We got a couple drinks from the friendly bartenders and swam in the beautiful blue ocean. One of the best days of our entire trip. Everyone made you feel welcomed and safe. The staff was amazing and deserve a bonus! Bring cash so you can tip everyone!

Very nice day for the family! - We almost didn't book this visit based on some other reviews, but we're sure glad we did! We enjoyed everything about this day from the boat ride over and back, to the iguanas, there was plenty of places to lay out, it wasn't crowded at all. The island is a neat place to visit with a lighthouse with great views, small, but nice beaches with good snorkeling. The staff was friendly and helpful and the food was good. We'd come back!

Amazing Experience - Amazing Experience. The Tour was much better as advertised and we had a blast. The underwater sculptures looks much older than on the pictures I highly recommend for Young and old.

I am solo traveler so I’m thankful for all kindness given to me since it makes me less anxious when people show kindness and knowledge off the bat.

Great experience. Will book again! - It was EXTREMELY HOT. Overall it was a good experience. Glad we got to relax on the island and do the non motor water activities at no additional charge. Just didnt like the pick up. We stayed at the coral atlantis on paradise Island and they only gave the option when booking to meet at Elizabeth Bay for departute. When we left there they actually go and do a pick from margaritaville on paradise Island. A waste of $68 for a taxi from paradise Island to Elizabeth on the bay.

Overpriced excursion with false advertising - We booked the SunCay Sunken Sculpture Snorkel & Iguana Encounter with Lunch excursion on the Carnival cruise for three family members, explicitly requesting vegetarian meals for all. I made this request twice—once during the booking and again at the guest service desk on the cruise—and both times I was assured that vegetarian meals would be provided. To our dismay, during the excursion, the food servers were completely unaware of our special meal request. They offered only peas and rice with coleslaw. My family had to settle for just the rice. This level of service is unacceptable, especially after repeated assurances. Moreover, the excursion was advertised as a guided snorkeling experience, which was completely misleading. We were merely given snorkel gear and brief instructions on how to tie the life jacket, then left on our own with no lifeguards or guides in the water. For first-timers, this made the experience extremely challenging and unsafe. Additionally, we barely saw any sculptures, which was the primary reason for choosing this excursion. Overall, this was the worst and most overpriced excursion we have ever experienced. The false advertising and lack of promised services were disappointing especially from a cruise company like Carnival.

Definitely not worth it. - Island was not clean. Snorkel experience was very short and not good things to see. The only bright spot of the trip was Iguana Key.
