5.00I highly recommend Black Tip for a 5-Star experience! They were so great with our 3 young children, making them feel very comfortable during the Bioluminescence tour! My 7-yr old was so scared to get into the water at night, but they were so great with great energy! Highly recommend!
Highly Recommend Blacktip!

5.00This is a must do experience. All of our kids ages 6~20 loved it and so did we. Glenn was amazing and the night swimming was not as scary as we thought it would be. A great time by all!

5.00We went out with Glenn three times: reef fishing, bioluminescence, and snorkeling/sting rays. Each was a blast! Clayton was a great fishing mate. Elton was extremely knowledgeable about the island and aquatic life. I highly recommend you skip the crowded party boats for a private charter. Well worth it. Fantastic experiences!
