Absolutely Incredible!

Athanasios_K, Jul 2024

What an experience! My wife and I did this for our honeymoon. It was wonderful. Silvio makes you feel very safe. They dive in first when a shark is found, then you go when it is safe. Mariana, who also works there, was so incredibly helpful and welcoming that it made our day feel so much safer and better. We saw a blue shark, almost 3 meters. They get really close to you! We even saw a sea turtle and jumped out to meet it, it was so cool!

Very fun, unique experience!

Snorkeling and seeing the fish was amazing. We had never done that before and so for myself and my kids it will be a great memory. Silvio and Bruno were lovely. It was fun to learn from a marine biologist.
