Top Puerto Rico On the Water

I want to give 5 stars for the customer service. It was A1. I booked the excursion without payment then when days got closer for me to pay it was giving problems so I booked another one with payment but date wasn’t the same. I panicked and asked for the correct date and it was fixed immediately. I appreciated the urgency. The excursion itself was great as well. Ladies please don’t do like me and have on a lace thinking it won’t be hella wet like I put your face all in the water cuz it does. Also have the water proof phone case. Fair warning!!! Overall great experience

First of all, Raul runs this excursion all on his own so I want to applaud him for taking care of all 6 of my family while he got us to and from the bag. There are many larger outfits doing the same thing but you can tell they aren’t as interactive with their customers. This adventure was absolutely miraculous. It was like floating through space and I am so glad we booked the clear kayaks so you could see all of the bioluminescence being triggered as we paddled through the water. Since there was virtually zero light pollution (except for a little moon light) the entire night sky was lit up with super bright stars and the water below you was lit up in bioluminescence. This was an experience we will never forget and is definitely a bucket list type activity. Raul took his time to explain practically everything there is to know about the microscopic aquatic organisms called dinoflagellates. His passion about the ecosystem where they thrive truly shows how much he loves not only the Puerto Rican biome but also what he does every single evening. He answered any questions we had and showed us how to take the perfect picture of the bioluminescence. When we were done, Raul took us back to the pickup spot and let us use his water hose across the street at his house to wash off the dirt and grime of the bay launch point. Absolute 10/10 experience!

Let me first say this. The hiking portion of this adventure is not for the weak. You need to be hydrated and somewhat in shape because the hills to get to where you are going are tough. That being said, this adventure was absolutely unforgettable. Our guide Miguel made the trip interactive while giving us so much knowledge and insight into the surroundings. Wading through the river was cool and refreshing. The overhangs of the embankments, the stalagmites, stalactites, the bats, and the hidden caves were just so cool. Tubing was so much fun, and the second portion of the tubing became a lazy river type of experience and the guides didn’t rush you. You got to just float and look up and look at all of the enormous vegetation and rocky features. Finally, we stopped at a medium sized pool where we got to jump from rocks multiple times before heading back uphill to drop off our gear. We even got to eat some fresh Pumarosa which is a Puerto Rican local fruit that is like a mix of a plum and an apple. It was hydrating and delicious and right off the tree. Finally, we were able to shower/rinse off at a provided station at the end and just spend time talking with all of the guides. Note: DO NOT WEAR WATER SHOES. There are a lot of places to slip and hurt yourself, and lots of large rocks in the river that make wearing water shoes very difficult. Tennis Shoes, or hiking shoes are the way to go. This is an absolute must do activity for anyone wanting to see Puerto Rico nature and I can’t wait to go back and do it again!

The sailboat ride was great, with amazing views. Icacos is a gorgeous island. There were a lot of other boats and people on the island. There's plenty of beach time. The food was good and there's plenty of alcohol if you want it. Snorkeling the reef was ok but we saw more fish under the sailboat by the reef. The crew was very friendly and it was a fun trip.

Amazing time, beaches are phenomenal, a MUST for anyone visiting puerto rico. Important info, the waves can be brutal getting there, waves up to 5 feet and more can rock the boat significantly. If you have motion sickness of any kind, please PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU TAKE MOTION SICKNESS PILLS. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, YOU WILL NOT HAVE A GOOD TIME. Motion sickness is no joke on a boat, you will have a very, VERY bad time. Never really been on a boat to realize I had sever motion sickness like that. Thankfully my wife found some people who shared some motion sickness pills with me, was able to get back with no issues. Also, the sun there is BRUTAL, make sure to have proper sun screen. Came back so sunburned. Other than that amazing experience would highly recommend, best thing we did on our puerto rico trip.

This mini boat snorkeling tour was such a unique and fun experience! Getting to drive your own boat made it feel like a real adventure—perfect if you enjoy something a little more hands-on and exciting. The snorkeling was incredible. The water was crystal clear, and there was so much marine life to see—we spotted tons of fish, a huge sea urchin, a lionfish, and even a couple of live shark suckers. It honestly felt like swimming in an aquarium. They give you a good amount of time to snorkel, which we really appreciated. Just a heads up—some reef areas are pretty shallow, so be mindful while swimming. Also, don’t underestimate the sun! Definitely apply (and reapply) plenty of sunscreen—we ended up with some pretty bad sunburn. Still, totally worth it for such an unforgettable experience!

Our experience was amazing! The staff was super attentive and kind. Made the experience just that much better :). We loved the experience and although the sunset wasn’t that great that day we got some beautiful pictures and even saw a double rainbow! Definitely recommend and worth the price! The drinks were delicious!

My wife and I ended up being the only students because of rain (there’s no reason to cancel if it rains, we were covered), and we had an absolute blast! Neither of us knew how to salsa and Juan taught us so well that we left ready to hit a salsa club to practice our new moves. Out of all the amazing things we did and saw in Puerto Rico, this was by far one of the most memorable experiences we had, and we have a new friend in Juan. Highly recommend!!
