Was first time we went snorkeling and enjoyed it very much. We changed to the earliest time due to their recommendation about the tides that day and so glad we did..the weather perfect, the waters clear..saw a lot of fish, crabs, shells..Best part was feeding them the frozen peas..too cool. Boat ride a bonus as saw dolphins along the way. Great experience, well worth doing!

Our family enjoyed this trip very much! Captain Mark gave us a very smooth boat ride, and Oliver was a very knowledgeable and helpful guide. I appreciated that he kept his commentary family friendly as there were lots of kids on our trip. Great experience for beginning snorkelers!

It was a great time! Captain Mark and Z were very welcoming, informative and made sure my 12, 11, and 4 yr old daughters were safe. My 4 year old was even able to snorkel. Definitely would recommend!

Mark and Oliver were wonderful people to go out with. Mark the captain brings experience and Oliver is way over qualified for this position but he does it for fun and the fun and personality really shine. No matter what your ability level he has got you. And he loves kiddos. We got to see some dolphins, grab some shells and snorkel in some quiet water. What more could you want? Maybe food and drink recommendations on your way out? Ollie’s got that covered too. We hit up Beignets and Brew on our way out and that was a 10 out of 10 recommendation from our friend Ollie. You should book this tour. Good people, Good fun.

They canceled due to low numbers. They expect me to give them 24hrs notice. But they don't give me 24hr notice. Text said they notified you I would need a refund.

Great trip! Staff were all really friendly and our crew was great. It was a windy day and they made sure we were safe. There was a young boy in our group and they even carried him to a shallow area so he could be comfortable. We saw dolphins and collected a lot of shells. Thanks Captain Mike and Oliver for a great day!
Response from Host, Apr 2025
