We had a great time on our sunrise turtle snorkel trip. We were the first group in the water at 6am which was such a peaceful experience. We saw plenty of turtles and Eagle rays, along with many varieties of cool corals and reef fish. Highly recommend this company over all the others- their care for the environment is unparalleled

What an amazing experience. The team were awesome, and water health & safety was amazing. If we didn't feel confident to swim especially with the current on the day it was easy to reschedule. Very well priced that didn't disappoint, would definitely recommend and do again. Absolutely support the petition to keep the passage users environmentally responsible to preserve the marine life and water quality. Keep up the fabulous work :)

A truly dreamland experience... I wished it took forever:-)). It fascinated me how beautiful, calm, approachable and inquisitive the turtles were. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, I liked their absolute eko attitude towards the whole experience. Good quality gear. Definitely recommended.

What an amazing tour. Loved the strict safety approach and ran us through what to expect with the strong currents, tested us out so we knew we would be safe. I liked the eco friendly and sustainability of their buisness, being real kaitiaki and advocating for the ecosystem. Having photos on top of that is a real bonus. What a pleasure, thanks for having us.

Amazing time we had! They made sure that we had a great experience looking at marine animals especially the turtles eagle rays and at the same time how to respect their environment. They also made sure that we are safe the whole time that we are in the open ocean water. Massive thank you Snorkeling at cook island Team you’re the best! Highly recommendable 🌸

A fantastic way to start the day a sunrise swim to see the turtles and reef fish . Liked the safety conscious approach and low eco impact focus , no scooters, boats a walk in , walk out. Well resourced with equipment and people , clearly epxlained the trip and gave tips on how best to see the turtles. Educational and fun . Plenty of very relaxed turtles , eagle rays , moray eel & fish seen. A perfect start to teh day at 7 am
