Snorkeling

We had such an amazing snorkeling experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially with giving us tips as beginners. All snorkeling gear and reef-safe sunscreen were included, and they were constantly checking to make sure we had everything we needed. Breakfast, lunch, refreshments, and even cookies to go were provided! The water and reefs were beautiful, and we had plenty of time to snorkel and relax without feeling rushed or exhausted. The trip was also really informative. Definitely recommend!

Perfect adventure

So much fun, despite the sea sickness. The waters were a bit rough so several people were sick the first half. The breakfast and lunch were good, no risk of running out. The crew were great, attentive, friendly, polite. Very professional and knowledgeable, safety a priority. We were able to see so many fish and coral. They told us stories about Hawaii and captain cook.

Lots of cool fish

The experience was fine. The guides in the water seemed to think they were babysitting us and were nuts about where you could swim. I’ve been on a lot of snorkel trips and this is not normal. The sailing part of the package was minimal. Everything else was fine.

Amazing Trip

We set sail with our family, ages 8-78. The crew was so welcoming. They were extremely helpful, especially with teaching/helping the kids. As a parent, I appreciated that crew lifeguarded as we snorkeled. We were so glad that we picked the trip that included food. We were starving after snorkeling at two spots! The snorkeling was so amazing. I would highly recommend this trip for families.
