“We had a great day. Oscar and Carlos were great. They were very punctual and everything went smoothly. Excellent snorkeling with a great variety of fish, some lobsters and an octopus. There was a bit of current to swim against but excellent visibility. Back on the boat we had beers, water and very good ceviche. When we docked in Isla Mujeres, Oscar helped with the cart rental. We had a fun day touring the island, had a nice lunch and met the boat back at the marina. Smooth trip back to the dock. Very low stress day.” - Reviewed on 2024-11-07
