Thank you very much David for the receipt with your team, the best attraction I've ever done with my daughter, everyone is happy and gave us a lot of fun, I RECOMMEND it very highly

April J, Sep 2016
The staff on the boat were very nice, professional and very accommodating. The first stop was to snorkel. The water was a little rough so we didn't get to enjoy it as much as we expected but that is no fault of the staff. The second stop was sharks and stingrays. It was more of a photo op with a shark and stingray not really much interaction with them so that part could have been better. Third stop was at a natural swimming pool which was very nice and relaxing. Overall a great day out on the water.

Everybody was very helpful, but Stingrays and sharks are in an enclosure and seems like they were abused. Those beautiful animals just huddle in the corner and don't swim unless workers pull them out. After they pulled them out they quickly swim to the other corner and hide. I regret buying this tour.

This trip was amazing. It combined snorkeling, swimming with sharks and stingrays, and some good music, dancing and fun on the boat. I only wish it was longer. I would definitely do it again!

At first we where in doubt to do this excursion but we are really happy that we did it after al. The staff was really kind and funny and the service on board was great. We got love cocktails, fresh fruit and a sandwich. The crew also spoke multiple languages, what was great for us because we come from the Netherlands and they spoke a little bit Dutch too. The excursion itself was really good accompanied. We felt safe in the water with the sharks and stingrays. Also the snorkeling was really fun to do, there were lots of fish to see. We recommend this trip to everyone who stays in Punta Cana.

Captain Tomas and his crew were great. They kept you dancing and involved in between stops. The stingrays were HUGE and so friendly. To swim with them in their space was an amazing feeling. The staff was so polite and friendly they made you feel comfortable throughout the adventure

Nicolle L, Apr 2016
Had an amazing time. The crew were vibrant, keeping the party alive. We had a great group on board. Music was loud. The sea and beaches were amazing. The coloured fish you see while snorkeling is so beautiful. And holding a shark and sting ray was out of this world.
