What To Expect
Champagne Beach
Experience the spectacle of Dominica’s rainbow-coloured seascape, during this very private boat tour. Named for the bubbling waters rising from volcanic thermal springs on the ocean floor, Champagne Reef attracts diving and snorkeling enthusiasts from around the world. The reef’s plummeting cliffs and towering volcanic formations perfectly match Dominica’s massive mountains and gorges. Whether diving or snorkeling, you’ll encounter a dazzling explosion of colours. The reef holds a paint box of sponges with names like pink azure, red rope, yellow tube, and purple vase. Matching the color and variety of the sponges and crinoids is a fascinating range of undersea creatures — octopus, rays, trumpet fish, parrotfish, frogfish, batfish, hawksbill turtles, seahorses, sea snakes, and eels. You may even encounter the remains of the 17th century Spanish shipwreck. After this snorkeling tour from about 45 minutes well go to the beach for a cold drink.
Bubble Beach Spa
Between our two snorkeling sites we will take a rest in the hot sea springs at Bubble Beach near the village of Soufriere.

5.00Small boat ride with a great view of the island. Tour guides were knowledgeable and personable. Equipment in great condition. We saw sea turtles and an eel in addition to the champagne reef and bubble beach. Nice little bar at bubble beach too. Soufriere is gorgeous!
It was a magical day!

5.00Brittany and Selo were fantastic! They personalized the tour and pointed out some creatures we had never seen before. The Champagne bubbles were very unique and Selo was able to capture the Hawksbill we saw at our second stop on video for us to remember always. We highly recommend this tour.

5.00Britney & Selo were the best crew ever, they were SO friendly, offered lots of great insight on their island & took exceptional care of us! We really liked the personal, small group experience they offer over cruise ship excursions. There were 3 in our group & 2 additional singles who we enjoyed spending the afternoon with. Snorkeling was great; fish, turtles & those “Champagne bubbles”!! They accommodated our cruise schedule by starting the tour a little early & getting us back to the ship in time without sacrificing time in the sea. Thank you for the best excursion on our 11 day cruise!
A wonderful experience

5.00The guides were wonderful. We so enjoyed the entire experience. The snorkeling was perfect and the water was warmed by the steam from the volcanoes. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
