5.0The tour with Silversonic was excellent. Two people on our party went snorkeling and had a great time. The third person did an Introductory Dive with Kevin which was an excellent time. Kevin was an excellent instructor making the process fun and easy.

5.0This was an amazing experience. Saw a bunch of coral, clams, and fish. The guides were very helpful and knowledgeable. The gear fit well and was in good condition. We’re average swimmers and felt safe the entire time. Lunch was plentiful and the boat didn’t feel too crowded. All you need to bring is sunscreen, towel, change of clothes, and a good attitude.
Must do activity!
