Great excursion and crew! Highly recommend! Very family friendly and an easy few hours out on the water. You’ll see some common fish and be able to dive for shells.

Had such a great time from riding on the boat, to snorkeling and seeing some fish, and even the food they made us. There was plenty for everyone and maybe even second plates. We also got some food during the boat ride back to dock it was a very satisfying time.

This was an INCREDIBLE experience!!! The captain was extremely knowledgeable and sweet as well as his helpers. The food was SO good and where he took us was the perfect spot! We saw pufferfish- catfish- jellyfish - and hundreds of others that were gorgeous. Will 100% go again next time we are down !
