5.00Chang was very professional and patient with the many questions and inquiries my family had while on the trip. We've utilized him everytime we make our way to the cayes. He definitely puts a priority on safety with doing his best to provide our family with the most wonderful experience! Definitely a laid-back, experienced guide providing an amazing experience!
Memorable!

Spectacular Day Out with Seaworthy

5.00I'd like to start by saying that I almost never leave reviews on anything, but felt I needed to post one about our BRILLIANT day with Seaworthy. Capt. Chang Lee and his guide were incredible hosts; very friendly and knowledgeable. The boat that we were picked up in was comfortable and we all felt very safe on the cool ride out to the snorkeling spot. Once there, we almost immediately checked off the #1 item on my wish list: a big ole beautiful turtle glided by only a few minutes after we got in the water. Although the highlight, this was only the beginning. The reserve was packed with a variety of marine life. Our guide was active; pointing out interesting species and features of coral. He was especially amazing at finding tiny species we would have completely missed if he hadn't pointed them out. All in all, this was almost definitely the absolute highlight of our Belizean trip. Highly recommend!
