The tour guides / instructors were both fun and helpful! They helped us feel confident and we laughed a lot while kayaking as well as on the boat before snorkeling. The snorkelling itself was on quite a choppy bit of sea, but we still got to see lots of fish (no sharks or turtles for us 😔). They provide masks, fins and snorkels, though the snorkels are the basic kind so they don’t stop water from entering it. We didn’t realise they provide quite a tasty snack after the session so we didn’t even need to get lunch! A great surprise! Just please remember to send a separate message providing any dietary requirements as otherwise they will assume you can eat anything.

Well-organized tour. The mangroves are scenic, the guides are friendly, it’s a short ride out to the reef to snorkel, and the snacks and optional lunch were delicious. The kayaking and snorkeling are not strenuous, and this is a great all-ages activity.

Absolutely loved our tour - probably my favourite tour of Antigua so far. Kayaking through the mangroves was beautiful and Cades Reef was great. Kevin and Alex were great guides and so funny

It was amazing. The people were really attentive and talkative. It was a really fun and unique experience and ending with a beach picnic with rum punch or fruit punch and snacks :) always recommend!
