Good Snorkel/ Bad Photographer
The snorkel experience was fun and the locations were great. The guide Guerillmo was very good and the captains ability to stay with the snorkelers and his cerviche was terrific. The photographer took good pics of us, however, took our money in cash and then did not send the photos to us as agreed.

Excellent excursion for snokerling
The tour is great and accurately as advertised. We were on a boat to 4 different places to snooker. We were able to see coral reef, lots of fish at the first 10m deep ocean. Then to the other 3m deep ocean, we saw starfish, stingray, turtle and some baby sharks. There was even 6 legs starfish. At the final beach where everyone can stand, we saw some stingray at very very close distance. Tour host also gave us some beverage and food to dine on the beach. Perfect memory

Great excursion from the...
Great excursion from the cruise ship. Communication was clear and meeting location was easy to find. The boat took us to 4 different spots with different focus areas such as snorkeling, sea turtles, coral reefs, and the best spot was saved for last which was the beautiful and clear blue waters of the protected marine beach park.

Bring you own fins if you want them.
It was a fun trip and the crew was great. The only thing to note is that they do not provide fins. I brought fins on the trip but didn't bring them for this excursion as equipment was provided, but fins were not so that was a little disappointing

Awesome Trip.
Our guide was fantastic! He showed us so many sea creatures in the reefs that we would have missed. He also shepherded the fish around the reefs so we can see them all. Well planned trip to 4 different locations. Water clarity was superb. Fish was abundant. I would do it again.

Excellent trip and great guide!
Omar was our tour guide and he was excellent. Very helpful and friendly. Went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great trip.
We saw sting rays, turtles, fish, starfish and had a great trip! The marina is walkable from the cruise port as well. No need to pay for an overpriced taxi or shuttle if you don’t mind walking a bit.
