5.00My family and I did a half-day tour complete with snorkeling, fishing, and cook your catch on the beach. It was fantastic! Noble and Chop made sure we all had a great time. They picked us up from the dock outside our AirBnB. Our lunch on the beach was so fresh and tasty. It was a fun and relaxing day. Highly recommend!
Tobacco Caye is a hidden treasure of Belize!

5.00Captain Nolan and his crew, Noble and Charlie, made our day trip to Tobacco Caye truly unforgettable. From showing us Bird Island to guiding us through the reefs while snorkeling, every moment was filled with care and intention. Captain Nolan leads with heart—he even helped me through a bout of seasickness with a lime and a tip to focus on the horizon. They took such great care of us, and I couldn’t recommend a trip to Tobacco Caye with this crew more!
Fabulous experience for the whole family

5.00I have been on several tours with Nolan and Noble, more than 7 times over the last 2 years, we go every time we are in Belize. I take my teenage son and my elderly mother. I can't say enough about how great these guys are and especially this tour. This tour in particular is for wildlife and sealife (he does several tours), and although you get time in the water in 3 snorkel spots, you also get to go view the nesting site of the Magnificent Frigate Bird, salt water crocodiles, manatees, and on one visit we saw all of these as well as dolphins and a loggerhead turtle at south water caye. The snorkel spots are mostly in the south water caye marine reserve, a protected marine wildlife area with a beautiful reef. This is a wonderful experience for you and your family whether you are in Hopkins, Dangriga, or on Tabacco Caye for a few days. I recomened you check out their website, or Google them to see other reviews since several people have reviewed them on Google and there are photos on there as well.
