Great snorkelling trip ! - Jason and his partner were courteous , kind and very helpful. We got a guided tour of the underwater reef and many fish and sea plants.
We got help getting on the boat and navigating the rocks on Booby island.
I’m sorry we weren’t hungry enough for the freshly caught and grilled lobster but the snorkelling was delightful! . Jason also pointed out interesting facts of the shoreline and hotels along the way and was funny!
Booby Cay island isn’t much to behold , quite littered with garbage but would have been a fine place to eat freshly grilled lobster.
Thanks guys for your kindness and help.

Captain Jason mad e our day AMAZING!!! - We had an absolutely AMAZING time on this excursion! Captain Jason led us personally swam with us to find to the best areas to see sea turtles, starfish, and swordfish. He also let us hijack the music, which may or may not have been a great experience for him. 😂 We troubled him to spend the entire day with us, due to all of the fun we had on the 2.5 hour excursion. We then visited Margaritaville, some caves, and took us down a beautifulrivwr off the ocean. This was hands down THE best excursion I have ever had in my lifetime and will most definitely book with Jason again, upon my return. A million thanks to Cptain Jason!

A perfect day on the water - We had such a a great day on the Lucky Duck-- the snorkeling was fantastic and we loved hanging out on Booby Cay afterwards. Captain Jason was a really great guide and he did such a good job of keeping our group together while also making everyone feel comfortable and safe. We noticed he was especially gentle and caring with some of the younger kids on our boat who were a little scared. Perfect day!

Great Excursion - Jason and Kevin were both great. The snorkeling was fun and just the right length of time. The lobster lunch on the island was really good. We paid almost $200 for 4 lobsters and beer/soda so be prepared for that if you are eating. I would highly recommend this trip if you like snorkeling.

Great excursion! - This excursion is a must! Captain Jason was great! We stopped twice to snorkel and he snorkels with you to show you the good spots. We had lunch on Booby Cay Island - the lunch is not included but a beautiful place to eat and hang out.

Great way to spend the morning. - We had a great experience on this tour. The boat didn’t end up being glass bottom, but weren’t overly bothered by it.
The snorkelling was good. Jason, the captain, was lovely. He made the day so much fun.
We did lunch on Booby Cay Island - worth the added cost.
Overall, it was a great was to spend half a day.

Have had better experiences. - Guide didn’t speak to us almost the whole trip. No guidance, no information, no interaction… until he thought he might sell us a lobster from the island (which was completely trashed from a party the night before). When he did speak he was nice. But it was a very awkward boat ride out. He didn’t get in the water to guide us through the reef, just gave us gear and pointed to where the reef was and sent us on our way. Then on the way back we got pulled over by the coast guard with AKs and he didn’t have his license on him. At one point during the police inspection my daughter and I legitimately considered jumping ship and swimming back to the resort. We were the only ones on the excursion and didn’t exactly feel comfortable and were questioning our safety. We have been on many snorkeling excursions but this one we cut short. On a positive note, the reef and fish were beautiful.
Now maybe the guide was shy and the police inspection was a fluke, but ultimately the experience was not up to par with previous snorkeling excursions.

The boat is room and... - The view was manifique the incredible water it had only yellow fish scratch black. The boats is room and old window in the center is tiny and very room to jam. It's definitely not a glass boat! Or we're going to eat it's so mosquito because it has trees and all the chicken cleaned not well cooked either. The guide was nice he made my son take a ride outside the boat to get this pulled and let my children drive the boat (with supervision) but leaving against the guide makes me a lot in advance and this was uncomfortable especially in front of the children until asking me to kiss him he has a lack of professionalism. I couldn't wait to finish the activity.
