5.00Fishbone here. Fabulous day sailing and snorkeling at 4 different sites, seeing an array of different sea creatures, including hawksbill turtles, green sea turtles, and a large sting ray. But best of all was our captain Darrin. An incredibly experienced sailor, he was also funny with a great sense of humor, stories to tell, relaxed charming demeanor, and a good cook to boot! He’s your man if you’re spending time on the water.
Amazing day on the water

5.00Addison was great to sail with. His knowledge of the area was superb. When rain came, he found a way to minimize the impact by changing our direction to a sunny area. Plus the wives found him great to look at.
A fantastic day on the water

5.00Captain Kendall was fantastic! Snorkeling spots were carefully selected. The best part was since we’ve been here most sailboat tours don’t actually sail and we did which enhanced the experience to a top rating. Lunch was grilled chicken on the boat and pasta salad, delicious would definitely recommend the sailing tour.
Amazing day!

5.00Great day sailing and snorkeling. Our Captain was AWESOME! He was experienced, knowledgeable of the area and took us to some great reefs to snorkel. We loved the small group set up. We will do this exact excursion when we return.
