The snorkeling at Under water museum was unreal, swimming over the sculptures was something we will never forget. Maho Beach was a blast with the planes flying right over us, and last spot was calm and beautiful to end the trip. The crew was super friendly, the drinks kept flowing, and the snacks were a nice touch. Worth every penny and a must do in St. Maarten
Amazing experience

We had an amazing time during our day especially thanks to Alex who had some great recommendations. We got to see a lot of different places in just half a day. I highly recommend this tour if you come to Saint Martin.
From ocean nervous to ocean curious in one day:)

We had an amazing experience with Captain Daniel! He was very informative about the island and culture and his experience as a deep sea diver gave me all the comfort I needed as a nervous Nelly snorkeling in the vast ocean, then we went to what seemed like a private beach because it wasn't crowded which was awesome. Great experience. Would definitely come back and adventure with Half Day Friendly Island Tours again!
