Everything about this was wonderful—sign up, response to questions and on site registration (thanks, Wania!), kindness of the people, knowledge of the area, safety, small group (ours was 12), making sure everyone was having a good time, assistance with photos. Jake (40 years experience) and Dalton were awesome on the boat! Definitely five stars!

Pickup at Marriott was seamless. Quick ride, courteous driver. Captain Jake was excellent very helpful and obviously experienced. Felt safe and comfortable snorkeling. Saw stingrays, colorful fish, sea sponges , then stingrays and starfish. Great half day excursion.

Stingray city was overrun by other tour boats full of people. Easily 10-15 boats and not enough stingrays, I felt bad, each tour guide would catch a stingray and just pass it around, of course we fed them but it just felt inhumane. Starfish city was neat but same problem… overrun by huge tour groups. And we only got barely 10 minutes exploring the starfish under water. We did get a LOT of pictures but not many without crowds in the background which was a bummer. I think the best part was snorkeling at the coral reef. It was just so neat. Our tour guide and his right hand man were amazing, helpful and kind. They did have a photographer on board and I felt like the extra price for pictures was worth it… but again, so many strangers in the pictures stunk.

If you're looking for a lot of snorkeling, look elsewhere. If you're looking for some snorkeling, a cool sting ray experience, a cool starfish experience, and a great crew, this is the trip for you.
