We were 4 kids and 2 adults and had the BEST time and got the best pictures we the turtles. Che and his team where amazing and so kind and patient with my kids You could tell everyone on the water knew che and followed him as the turtles where all attracted to Che’s boat! We all had a blast and I highly recommend this trip! We hope to come back next year and do it again!

Can’t say enough good things about Che. He and Peter took great care of our family of 4 for a private snorkeling experience. Che’s so experienced in finding the spot where turtles were most active and we got to swim very close to one for an extended time. This was the highlight of our vacation and my daughter couldn’t stop talking about it after we went back home. Highly recommend.

This was an absolutely delightful excursion from me and my family. Che did a great job making sure we had several opportunities to snorkel and the sailing was SO relaxing. Totally worth the $$!

Che goes above and beyond to make it a great experince. Personal and much more enjoyable than the "cattle car" snorkel boats.

It was an excellent experience! Che was great at explaining his knowledge of Carlisle bay, the shipwrecks and turtles. We saw numerous fish and turtles and definitely would recommend as a unique thing to do in Barbados!

The ride was smooth and the crew were laid-back but professional which made for a personable and relaxing time. Seeing the sea turtles was a magical experience and the Captain is very knowledgeable about the spots we visited!

We had a wonderful day with Che! He’s a very competent and knowledgeable sailor and snorkel guide. He is also a great photographer. He was able to capture photos of us with the turtles that look amazing. We definitely will be back and highly recommend his tour.

We had the most wonderful experience on this small group catamaran cruise. It was relaxed, personal, and such a refreshing alternative to the crowded boat tours you usually see in Barbados. We first visited the shipwreck and then swam with the turtles—an unforgettable experience! Captain Che is truly a turtle whisperer. The turtles seem to know and trust him, which meant we were able to get up close while he took amazing photos of us with them. Afterward, we enjoyed a peaceful sail down the coast, with plenty of time to swim and simply relax at the anchorage. It was the perfect balance of adventure and tranquility. If you’re looking for a relaxing, beautiful, and personal cruise experience in Barbados, this is absolutely the one to choose. Highly recommended!
