Beautiful catamaran barely a year old takes you to Buck Island. Attentive and capable crew, snorkeling gear is new and the spot they picked was perfect - our group saw turtles and even a barracuda. Lunch at a beach on another island, complementary drinks on boat, it was a five hour snorkeling, beach, cruise that our entire family really enjoyed. 5 stars.
Beautiful day…don’t miss out!

The staff was very professional and nice. Our youngest didn’t want to snorkel so Lindsay hung out with him the whole time making him feel comfortable and special. The boat was beautiful and clean. As soon as we got in the water we were able to swim with a few turtles and spotted a few more eating at the bottom of the sea. It was a beautiful experience and would recommend to anyone!!

We only saw one turtle and a few fish. The ads showed lots of turtles and fish. That with the one hour of snorkeling was disappointing.
Fantastic voyage

The reef on Buck Island is totally dead. There is nothing to see. The coral is nonexistent. No sea fans no life whatsoever. Saw only a few meager fish. The staff on the trip were great and friendly, but there is no reason to take is trip. There is nothing to see when you are snorkeling.
Beautiful and fun sail and snorkel trip.
