Cades Reef Tours and Tickets

Was an amazing experience, great tour guides! Elroy was amazing! Great vibes and energy… my only critique is that I wish the snorkeling was around 2 hrs instead of 1 hr. Had a blast though. The reef was beautiful and the company was great

Great music, great food, great snorkel time, fun boat ride! Would recommend this to anyone visiting Antigua.

Came in on a royalcarribbean cruise and this was perfect...you walk off the pier and keep to the right and the catamaran dock was really close (look for brown benches). The boat was great, the ride around the island was beautiful...but long...about an hour. Boat does have a bathroom. The reef itself as others mentioned is not in the best condition. We had 2 little kids and we struggled a bit but saw some colorful fish. Water was about 12' deep where we were at, and very clear. Spent about 40mins there and then on the way back stopped at a nice beach for another 40mins or so. Tons of shells and found a hermit crab. Kids really enjoyed this trip. Food and drinks were ok, nothing special. I'd suggest plenty of sunscreen, towels, and water and snacks for kids. Maybe even a card game or something to keep them occupied. The catamaran does have the cool front netting you can lay out on, and has a good amount of shaded area in the back if needed. Also, snorkels were obviously included but if you have kids I'd suggest buying the full face mask ones on Amazon and bringing them with you.
