2 Thumbs Up - I had an exceptional snorkeling experience, with remarkable underwater views and well-organized arrangements that exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this snorkeling excursion for beginners, as it offers a well-guided and accessible experience that's perfect for those new to the activity. Our guide Pico was amazing and knowledgeable about the marine life.

Amazing Snorkeling Experience With Passionate Tour Guides & Lots of Marine Life To See! - I can't say enough about how great this snorkeling experience was for me and my friends! I won't lie - I was hesitant at first as I don't swim and being out in the ocean with only a life vest was a little daunting. However, our guides, Paco and Jamie reassured us that we were in good hands and went over all the safety tips beforehand. Paco showed us what hand signals he would be using to communicate with us, went over rules in terms of what to be on the lookout for, what to stay clear of, etc. and assured us that we would have a great time! We saw Blue Tang, sea urchins, a sea horse and even a turtle - to say it was a memorable experience doesn't even cut it! Paco is beyond passionate about what he does and preserving the biodiversity of Puerto Rico's sea life and his desire to teach others really made this adventure all the more worth it. We were talking about this experience well into the rest of our time in Puerto Rico and even when we returned home! I highly recommend this snorkeling experience and encourage you to ask for Paco if he's available! #TeamPaco

First time Snorkeling = Amazing! - We had an incredible first-time snorkeling with Myrka! We had zero experience, and my mom was having anxiety before getting in the water but ended up absolutely loving it! We all loved it and would definitely recommend to anyone. Myrka was a great leader and explained everything in detail and looked for cool things to show us! This was one of our favorite days in PR! We saw a seahorse, 2 turtles and some gorgeous fish! Thanks for such a great experience!

Snorkeling in the heart of San Juan - I had a terrific tour of the marine park with Scuba Dogs! They were knowledgable about local marine life, accommodated a late party, and allowed more experienced swimmers latitude to explore away from the group. The water wasn't very clear due to the wind and tide, but the swim was a relaxing oasis conveniently located in San Juan. Would definitely recommend to visitors who don't have a car to get to other parts of the island.

Sea 🐢 turtle escape❤️ - Josh was our guide and when I say he was amazing it’s an understatement. My one purpose was to see sea turtles but I got to see soo much more. We were blessed with seeing a school of fish and other wonderful sea creatures. I don’t really know how to swim but Josh was very patient and let me use a floater to complete our wonderful snorkeling adventure. A must do!!!!!

Great guides and very friendly. - Guides were awesome and knowledgeable. Lots to see but it was pretty murky due to ride and with how many people are there for snorkeling and scuba in the area.

Nice people but terrible tour - Sadly this was one of the worst snorkeling tours we have taken. The team was friendly but highly disorganized. We arrived for a 9 am tour (beach start) and did not hit water until after 10. Excessive waiting then truly excessive explaining then almost no fish at ALL (reef is destroyed) but there were turtles which was nice.

Not worth it - The guide was very nice but this was not worth it . You stay on the beach and just snorkel there’s no fish barley to see and we saw one turtle at the end . You can go to this beach without a guide and look for them yourself except they supply you the snorkel .
