Great crew- best way to see the island! - Booking this tour was the best decision we made on our trip! It was the best way to see the island. The crew; Captain Mario, Agatha, and Jasper were fantastic. It was incredibly relaxing and the snorkel/swim stops were beautiful. Everything was included and the drinks were great. I would absolutely do this again!

10/10 - we had such an amazing time snorkeling and talking with the crew. Kiki, Fritz, and Lynn were the kindest and funniest people. Lynn kept the boat spotless while we snorkeled and kept us hydrated. Fritz & Kiki were super funny and knowledgeable. They knew the places we were curious about & they made sure to point them out to us. They were also determined to find sea turtles for us & on our last stop we got to see so many. i cannot recommend this crew & this tour enough!

8 hour Eco Tour with Turtles - Our crew of Ron, Lynn, and James aka 0007 on Quality time were wonderful! We saw lots of Turtles and sting ray and the day exceeded our expectations! Someone on our boat even reeked in a barracuda! The lunch was wonderful and so was the rum punch! Highly recommend the 8 hour Eco Island Tour!

Excellent crew. - The crew were excellent and made the beautiful tour super fun. Our only complaint was that there was no champagne, as promoted. One in our group only drinks wine and champagne, so he had no alcoholic options he could drink.

Best St Maarten excursion ! - I have been vacationing in St Maarten since the 80’s. Every year we do an excursion and this trip was by far the best. The staff and the food they serve make the difference. Highly recommend!
