We loved our power snorkling experience. My husband drove our boat around to the west side of the island, following our guides boat. Dexter and Bay were our guides. They were very personable and accommodating. The coastline of St Lucia was absolutely stunning. We saw the Pitons from the water. We went into the bay where Dr Dolittle was filmed. They explained the history of the island and pointed out the sights and celebrity houses and hangouts. Loved using the power Snorkeling equipment to get from snorkeling site to site quickly.

Great scenery, hopeless unreliable equipment.

Steven_B, Nov 2025
it started well but then the outboard on the 'speedboat' (it's actually a RIB) kept stalling whilst out to sea. The powered snorkelling was hopeless because they kept breaking down. A great trip for scenery and we got back safely but the equipment is quite obviously poorly maintained and when you are going offshore it's somewhat worrying.

Dan_G, Dec 2024
Excellent tour and very nice captains. Captained our own speedboat down the eastern coast from Rodney Bay to Soufries stopping at a few spots. Great views of the Pitons. We then went back the same way and stopped at a snorkel spot for almost an hour. Saw some beautiful fish. Highly recommend.

Our tour guide was absolutely amazing & very helpful! The speedboat ride was so much fun and so beautiful I couldn’t get enough and the snorkeling was just as amazing!

Highly Recommended

My wife and I just had a tour with Dexter and Dillon last week. This basically was a private tour for us, it was just the four of us, not some huge group like many other snorkeling trips. We had an absolutely wonderful time. The snorkeling locations were great, and the power snorkel were really cool and something different, but the driving the speedboat up and down the coast was spectacular. Loved getting the views of the Pitons from the water and seeing the island from a different view. We would highly recommend this for anyone heading to St. Lucia.
