Snorkel and swim to hidden beach - I watched videos of the swim to hidden beach and was surprised how safe it was! The boat was super nice! As well as the captain he was very attentive! Staff was perfect! The reef fish were abundant as they swam next to me! I will do this again! Thanks oceana adventures!

Fun, safe, picturesque experience - This was such a great trip! I’ve never snorkeled before and this was the perfect experience. The guides Manuel and Kevin, and the boat captain were all so friendly, kind, and knowledgable. The water was warm, mostly clear, and not too choppy. The boat ride to and from the island was wonderful. We also saw some dolphins in the distance! Highly recommend.

Snorkeling in paradise! - Highly recommend! Small group, 7 people, which was the perfect size. My wife and I took hadn’t really ever been snorkeling and the experience was awesome. Manuel, the Scuba instructor, Kevin, the Snorkel instructor and the captain were all very friendly and did a great job. The ride from the marina to the Islands was about 30 minutes - gorgeous ride. Once at the islands we did snorkeling in multiple spots, on multiple islands, and were able to go onto a beach on the second island (Playa la Nopalera). On the way we saw dolphins popping up out of the water. For the snorkeling the aquatic life was fantastic and plentiful and the water most pretty clear, able to see all the way to the bottom. Had sandwiches on the boat ride back. 10/10!

Fun 1/2 day on a small group boat to the islands - Had a great time and really appreciated the hospitality! Our captain and guide (I’m so sorry I forgot his name!) were helpful and very warm. Boat was small but fit 7 people comfortably and I appreciated having such a small group. Overall the experience was super fun, despite the slightly rough waves once we got to the islands. That’s not their fault! We were not able to go to Hidden Beach because of the currents/waves, but they still had us stop at 2 places for some snorkeling and gave us a tour around the island (on the boat). The guide pointed out some of the baby blue footed booby(s)- the island holds the 2nd largest population of the blue footed booby(s), second only to the Galapagos! Enjoyed learning about the high bird populations on the islands. The snack was a homemade ham and cheese sandwich with a good cookie- very basic but no complaints. On the way back from the islands, we stopped a few times as the captain spotted sea turtles and dolphins! That was a highlight of the trip, but overall it was a great 3-3.5 hr trip on the water. Only thing I’d want them to improve is being more specific about where to meet if you are not taking the van. We met at the marina, but they just said “marina” vs giving a dock number. People at the marina were nice and helped us out and we found the group.

We missed the boat on our... - We missed the boat on our first trip, but the team let us join the next day, (of course a little extra cost) but nothing too crazy, we were greeted with an amazingly friendly group of guys. They took us on a beautiful journey, drove us to the marine, took us to a beautiful spot to see lots of fish and even a few stingray, and even gave us a lovely sandwich. The team was really nice and I felt safe and relaxed Thanks Sebastian ☺️

Snorkeling - It was really great, I just expected to go to the real “hidden beach” we ended up going to a half one instead. It was still beautiful but not what was advertised. Snorkeling was amazing, we loved seeing all the fish! If you get chilled from semi cool water, I would suggest wearing some sort of water temperature protection! We also got to see some dolphins and humpback whales!
