Glen is the GOAT! - This was my first experience with snuba. Glen was our guide and he was great: experienced and knowledgeable. I’m anxious so had some trouble when I first sat underwater on the platform. I stood up and told Glen I was feeling anxious and he had me start with standing on the platform and placing my face in the water. He encouraged me to sit on the platform when I was ready. I did and felt better. Once we got started he slowly guided us through the coral. He snapped photos and video and watched us carefully. The coral was beautiful! We were down for about 30 minutes. Awesome experience!!

SNUBA was a great time! - SNUBA was great! It was easy enough to grab a taxi from the port to Coral World. We got there early enough to walk around and see a few of the educational talks. 5 minutes prior to our scheduled time we met Glenn (our snuba instructor) and he got us all squared away with gear. They have a large lockable footlocker to keep all your personal items while you are on the trip. After a safety briefing and some instructions. We were ready to SNUBA.
Glenn gave us a few minutes to get comfortable with the gear in the water and made some last minute adjustments to make sure all were comfortable and ready. He guided us off the platform and we were off!... to a slow, awkwardly moving start. My wife and another participant had very limited experience with even snorkeling so it took them a few minutes to get the hang of it. But Glenn was patient and helpful. He got them on track quickly and the trip was great. Plenty of fish to see. Glenn found a small starfish for us to gently hold. It was a great way to get to see the underwater sea life.
If you have ever been even slightly curious about scuba diving give this a shot to see how comfortable you are under the water. It was great time and highly recommend it.
We were also able to get a quick taxi ride back to the port. Rides were a little pricey at $14 per person, but readily available.

50th Birthday Bash! - We loved snuba!! It was definitely worth it to do!! It takes a little bit to breathe correctly with the respirator, but once you did, we could have done this for hours!! The operator was fantastic to help with all the safety and directions to go in the water. We would definitely do it again! Highly recommend this activity!!

Wow! - What a great experience! Kenny was an excellent guide! Great way to sea marine life in their natural habitat. Kenny made it a point to make sure I got to see several of the "hidden" creatures.

Wonderful!! - Last year for our honeymoon, we tried Sea Trekking for the first time & fell in love. This year for our 1 year anniversary we wanted to go back & decided on Snuba diving. Glenn was our instructor. He is patient, knowledgeable, attentive and has relaxed good humor. Very calming nature. He takes his time, sits down with you & explains the process. Glenn really helps to make that experience spectacular. Coral World has an irreplaceable employee in Glenn. Just know he is out representing your establishment in the highest professional manner. Thank you & thank Glenn.

Once in a lifetime experience! - An exhilarating adventure to the bottom that would have never been made possible without this program. I had never heard of SNUBA prior, but it was an awesome adventure to be able to float on the bottom and see coral and fish. I was initially afraid, however the patience of our guide GLEN made it all possible. I am 60 yrs old and was afraid I might not figure out how to breathe, but I did just fine. Thank you for a new experience, and one I will never forget.

Fun snuba experience - Glen gave us a good orientation, slow and clear. The dive was fun with coral and fish (no turtles or dolphins, just beautiful colorful fish). The length of the dive was sufficient. The air hose was awkward once got tangled. We could feel the pull of the floating raft that held the air tanks. The rest of the little park has some fine exhibits and could be explored in an hour or so. The talks about the animals were interesting.

Life-Changing for Newcomers - SNUBA is worth it all! Worked with a water master Glen, who made is feel like a serene experience for first-timers. Changed my relationship with the ocean for the better. Swimming up to 20-ft deep was a tiny bit challenging yet the most peaceful I've ever felt in the sea. GoPro video and pictures were taken by our guide and available for purchase. We took them all home but even pictures don't capture half of the brilliance of colors and life happening among the Coral.

Lots to see very fun - Coral world was really cool and fun! We had a great time seeing all the animals and learning about them. We did snuba and the dolphins kayaking and both were a lot of fun experiences. I was just disappointed when we went to purchase our photos from the experience and there were no usable photos! All the photos from our experience were of nothing at all! Very disappointing since they don’t allow you to take your own pictures during the experiences! Other than the let down of the photos we had a great time and I would definitely recommend going to check it out!
