Excellent trip. The staff were very helpful and attentive in the water. Fast trip out to the reef and plenty of time in the water. Small group which made it a great experience. Nice clean equipment. We had a great time.

We had an amazing time with this tour. Due to health issues we stayed with Monica, one of the guides during the snorkeling. She was amazing, so knowledgeable on every aspect of the reef, fish and shared it all. She made our day. Only problem was that there was no tip bucket at the end of the trip for a well deserved crew :). Honestly, they all deserved it. Well done to you all for really caring about our day, reef safety and overall care of the ecosystem.
