Not really a guided tour

3.00Super friendly staff at check in but not a guided tour, at all. You meet at the dive shop and get kit, then you drive yourself to the snorkel site 5-10 mins away. The “guide” who went with us basically just swam with us out to the reef, then just stayed nearby floating on his buoy while we all explored on our own. Zero guidance on where to look; no instruction on what we could see/were looking at in the area; zero moving us around to find new things etc. So yes, he was a nice guy, and we saw a lot of coral, mostly soft coral, and a few fish (but not very many fish, somehow), but this was more an expensive self-drive equipment rental than a “guided tour”.
We had a wonderful time...

5.00We had a wonderful time on this tour! Saw turtles, a crab and lots of fish! We were supposed to go the day before but with the tour guide made the decision out of safety to postpone or cancel due to crazy winds. They took our safety, time, and money into consideration which is much appreciated. Great tour and very informative. Well worth the time and money!
CANT WAIT TO GO AGAIN

5.00I went snorkeling for the first time ever and my tour guides were Chris and Ty and I had an amazing experience. Everything went smooth sailing, even though we had some complications with the construction that was going on. We were still able to make it to the water safely and have a blast, got to some little fishes!! great time and I can’t wait to go again.
Great snorkeling!!

5.00Reef was wonderful. Chris and Greg were knowledgeable about the fish we might see and watchful for our protection. Great dive spot--lucky enough to see shark, trumpet, puffer, eel-- and so much more. Great trip.

5.00Shawn was a great guide. She was patient with participants who were scared, and helped them to safely participate. The reef is very close to the entry point, so more confident swimmers were able to check things out while still in sight of the guide helping others. A hawksbill sea turtle swam alongside me which was a highlight! My biology major daughter got to see a lot of different sponge and coral varieties she had learned about in class.
Excellent experience!

5.00We had a blast! First time snorkeling and our guide/instructor was fabulous. She gave us a good primer before we left the dive shop and helped everyone in the party until we were in the water. We saw a sea turtle and tarpon and lots of beautiful reef fish. Best excursion of our trip!
Great experience

5.00Our guide was adorable. The sea life was amazing (from huge turtle to teeny angels). Water was warm, clear, but choppy. We’d go again in a heartbeat - but probably try first thing in the morning when the waves are calmer.
If you’re going on a snorkeling adventure ask for Claire! She will make sure you have an amazing time!

5.00We had a wonderful snorkeling adventure with Claire. She was the perfect guide for our group. We were 2 seniors and there was another family with 2 adults and 2 boys one who was around 9 or 10. She was very gentle with us and answered all of our many questions very knowledgeably. She gave us a lot of information about what we were going to see and exactly what to do and what not to do in the sea. We saw a lot of variations of coral, some in better condition than others. We also saw schools of small colorful fish and some larger. The most exciting find was a Hawksbill turtle. We were out there over an hour which was enough time. Clair had a small float to hold onto if you needed a break, which I was very happy for as was the 9 year old. Claire towed both of us most of the way in. Because of the swells I became very dizzy and Claire made sure I got onto the beach safely so I could rest. She was an excellent guide.
