5.00We did the kayak and snorkel tour with Casey in June of ‘22 with our friends and loved it so much, we came back to do it again yesterday (Nov ‘25). Casey was a great guide!! He was so friendly and knowledgeable! We saw so many cool fish and inverts on our snorkel and the kayaking was really fun! We will do it again next time we are on the island!

5.00Suitably long kayaking trip, followed by simple snorkeling. Suitable for all ages, even beginners. Fun experience for a good money. Highly recommended!
Fun and well worth the price!

5.00My husband and I traveled with our teenage sons. This was a fantastic experience for us. Our tour guide, Casey, was knowledgeable, accommodating, and fun. He made sure we saw unique, interesting marine life, and he got us up close and personal. It was slightly strenuous, but it was perfect for us. We agree it was well worth the cost.

5.00Pablo was an AMAZING tour guide -- friendly and fun. This trip is a great value! The Kayak/Snorkel adventure was great. We had good weather and the bay was calm so it was a good kayak out. Pablo gave great instructions and made us feel safe. We kayaked out to a beach (and were able to leave valuables locked up) where we then put on our snorkel gear and swam out to a nearby reef -- the swimming looked far but was easy aided by a life vest and flippers! We saw interesting coral and some varieties of fish. We then kayaked back and had a refreshment on the beach. I would highly recommend this trip!
Lacking in safety but excels in cheap equipment

2.00Safety briefing was hard to hear becuase of loud background music. Worthless since most people in the group couldnt hear a word that was being said. Kayaks are narrow, unstable, and cheap. They only have tandems and no singles. Snorkeling consists of swimming about 100 yards against the current. Dont bother if you arent a strong swimmer. Cheap life perservers are nasty old and water logged. Prepare yourself to be required to improperly wear them on your 100 yard plus swim! These life preservers are not waist belts! Very dangerous! Overall this company lacks in guest safety and excels in cheap equipment. There are better activies avaliable in St Marteen.
