  • The Highlight of our Stay!

    Leah P,Mar 30, 2026

    - Review from Viator

    This was amazing! It was a small group of people ( I believe 9 plus Che and his first mate), so we all got more time to watch and interact with the turtles. The shipwreck and reef were also great, and out small group was the only one there. It was far from overcrowded or impersonal. Yes, you will need to get up a little early on vacation, but the payoff is SO WORTH IT! I literally cannot thing of a single negative thing to say. We had our school aged child with us, and it he had a great time too.

  • Nice small group snorkeling trip

  • Snorkelling with turtles

    What an incredible experience! We had a small group of just four of us and went early so we were the only boat there. There were two chances to snorkel. The first was with the turtles - the Captain was really good and advised us to just wait for them to approach us, and we had four good size ones swimming beneath, alongside and directly towards us. The second stop was above a Shipwreak where we saw lots of tropical fish. Drinks were available and we were offered a snack. Also life jackets and noodles could be used if wanted. Would totally recommend

  • A wonderful day!

    I'm always wary when booking activities involving animals, but I would highly recommend Che. This is a small group tour that goes to a different spot than the larger boats, so the turtles don't get overwhelmed. Che clearly communicated how to interact with them, and was in the water with us to oversee things. While one of the turtles does swim right up to get fed, he explained that it is already used to scavenging from local fishermen who clean their catch in the area. We also saw several younger turtles who stayed in deeper water. Che was very responsive to messages and offered to reschedule us due to rain, but I'm so glad we didn't - it was a perfect day!

  • Great experience! Che...

    Che and his crew mate were fantastic!!! I always books small private trips when we do cruises so we can get out before the crowds a this did not disappoint! We were picked up at a beautiful beach and taken to swim with sea turtles, we were the first boat there and had the turtles all to our selves. Che took amazing underwater pix of our entire group with the turtles. Really awesome shots!! He then took us to a sunken ship coral reef! Lovely morning and 5 star all around!!!

    Amazing experience swimming with the turtles & snorkelling off Holetown. Small group to ensure plenty of interaction with the turtles , Che & his crew (both were wonderful) . Pick up and drop off from hotel was seamless. Duration of tour was ideal too.

  • Amazing Boat Trip - Best Ever!

    Hayley G,Mar 25, 2026

    - Review from Tripadvisor

    5.00

    This trip was AMAZING 🤩 Thanks very much. Had such an awesome time! Che and his crew member, Kamal, were so welcoming and genuinely wanted us to have a great time and enjoy the experience. They took us to different locations and told us a bit about each area. The shipwreck was great, as were the fish, but for me seeing the turtles up close is a memory I will never forget. Probably the best boat trip I have ever done. The cherry on the top was the professional pictures taken by Che which he was happy to send to us free of charge - memories for a lifetime! Was so well organised and going early in the morning is a great idea as you beat the other boats because if too crowded, it might prevent you from seeing the turtles as they do not like big crowds.

  • The most amazing experience

    What an amazing Experience! this tour is excellent. We had good communication with Che right from the start. We were picked up from our hotel exactly on time and taken to the boat along with another couple. The boat picked us up from the beach north of Bridgetown. Che left us in the excellent hands of his skipper Kamal. This tour starts early and with good reason. Starting early means you beat all the other tour boats to the reefs and and sites so it feels like you have almost exclusive access to the amazing turtles and all the fish. By the end of the tour we were just ahead of the big boats and others were starting to join us and interrupt the experience. With Che you are really up close and personal with the Turtles and fish and able to witness them before they have ben scared off by all the other tours. We were provided with masks and snorkels (fins were not required) and also some excellent refreshment by way of cake and rum punch at the end. This was the most amazing tour and well worth the money and the early start to beat the crowds and actually see turtles and fish up close.
