This experience was truly unbelievable and it was great to have such an excellent guide to navigate exactly where to find the bubbles and the living coral reefs. We saw tons of unbelievably beautiful fish, and it was nice to relax on the beach after the experience. I was truly blown away and is definitely a must while visiting Dominica!

Adin was a great and knowledgeable guide. There were just 2 of us with him, so we covered everything! We saw a juvenile stingray, many types of corals and sponges, and many types of reef fishes. It was a very enjoyable experience! A note for weaker swimmers, the current was stronger in certain parts of the reef - no danger, but worth being aware of
