Ryan and His deck hand who ive lost her name now .. were sooo much fun and an absolute blast and loved every minute with them. We went on a snorkeling/dolphin excursion and I would absolutely recommend anybody to go do this while in PCB. We are very glad we went. Please say hello to ryan and his crew for us.

Chelsea and Capt.Mike were awesome ! It was cloudy and cool , but we made the best of our morning cruise ! We got to see a lot of dolphins ! (Thanks Magic Mike ) We swam to shell island and found sand dollars . Did not see any fish , maybe because of the wind . But either way it was lovely day with the perfect crew. And the reggae music on the boat was a personal fav :)

This was our favorite activity while in PCB. Captain Mike and Chelsea were fantastic. Snorkeling was magical and we have never seen so many dolphins before. Highly recommend!

This was a fun ride to see the dolphins but the snorkeling wasn’t as expected. But it was a nice morning.

Mike and Chelsea were AMAZING!!! It was a windy day and Captain Mike was a pro getting us to a good spot to snorkel. Took great care of us and spent time finding dolphins on the way back for us! Chelsea was super helpful and made us all feel welcome and happy!

Capt Mike and Chelsea were fantastic. 3 of the 4 in our group was first time snorkelers and Chelsea was very excellent with showing us how to use the mask and snorkel. Out of all the adventures we did during our vacation this was by far everyone’s favorite. We will totally be back to do it again!

The trip was awesome. Mike and Chelsea were so nice and knew so much about the area. We absolutely loved the snorkeling and found crabs, starfish, sand dollars, a little crustacean, sea urchins and tons of shells. We also saw about 30 dolphins. It was amazing.
