1.00The experience with the snorkel group started out not being able to find the meeting place because the directions on TripAdvisor did not list the nameof the company or where to meet other than just at the marina. The trip itself was great. We saw a lot of animals. The guy leading. The snorkeling trip was awesome. We even swam with some nurse sharks. They tooksome amazing pictures and this is where the review gets really bad as we paid for the pictures and have yet to receive them, it’s been almost 5 days. I’ve called the company several times with no return or answer
A perfect experience

5.00This trip was wonderful. The stops were beautiful. We saw sea turtles, baby sharks, rays, starfish and so many more fish. The guides and photographers were great also. Would highly recommend this trip. We had a 10 year old with us and she absolutely loved it.
Wonderful!

1.00They only took us out for three hours, instead of four hours. They promised us at least four separate snorkeling spots and even sent me photos of the supposed spots. We only snorkeled in two spots. They made it seem like it was mandatory to put my bags in the nets above our heads, instead of at my feet. I lost BOTH my hat and my sunglasses. They told us to jump off the boat into very shallow coral. My dad and husband both got caught on the coral (which can’t be good for the reef either).
