We loved our trip to Vieques by boat! From start to finish, the crew was helpful, encouraging, and a great time! I loved being out on the water and taking in the sites. We loved our time on Vieques and being able to snorkel was great. We saw sea turtles, a stingray, and a barracuda with a ton of other fish. The drinks provided were refreshing and the crew kept them flowing and they even accommodated my gluten free diet for lunch which was so thoughtful. I would definitely do it again! Worth the money to get snorkeling, boat tour, lunch and drinks!

We had a great time on this snorkeling trip. The staff was great. They kept us safe and informed. Two of them even got in and snorkeled with us to keep us safe and help us spot creatures. The boat ride there and back was fantastic as well.

It was so beautiful!! There were huge conch shells, sea turtles, rays, and schools of fish swimming by!! Our guides were great!!! And they were wonderful hosts with food and drinks (they also had beer and rum ). We got to hang out on the island ( I felt like we were on our own pirate island). We snorkeled there and also went a little further out in the water to see the sea turtles. You could even jump off the top of the second story of the boat if you wanted to. What a wonderful trip!!! They had plenty of different flotation devices for all levels of swimmers and were ready with lifeguard floats if anyone was in need of help. It was a great time for all ages!!!

The initial reservation was for Culebra, due to weather, we were redirected to Vieques. The tour team was excellent! The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable . The tour was on time without any delays. Planning on a Culebra tour next summer with this same team. Service was excellent!

The captain and crew are safety first type of boat.. They run a tight ship and know how to read the water and people well. Left nothing to chance and we felt incredibly safe. They also know all the best spots for everything! There is no chance you will leave feeling like you missed out.. This is the tour to book and hands down! I think when you are putting yourself and family on the open sea it is important to know your captain!

Absolutely would recommend! We had a wonderful time! Juan and his partner were great! They explained everything from facts about Vieques to how to put your snorkel gear on correctly. We stopped at the snorkel spot first and was guided through the water to ensure everyone’s safety and to make sure we all seen the beautiful sea life! After we were served wraps and drinks and headed to our beach spot where we were able to snorkel again, relax on the beach, and paddle board!! They were both so kind and had great hospitality. We would definitely book again, it was a great experience!

Hello Catherine_O,thank you for your review.
We are glad you enjoyed your trip! Thank you for recommending us!
This was an amazing experience. Recommend for anyone that likes water, beaches, boats and/or snorkeling. Went w/ my teenage daughter and we both loved it.
Great time with Capt Carlito and Freddy. Very knowledgeable and put a nice touch on the experience. Entertaining for my 7 year old and 29 year old. Must do for. We saw turtles, barracuda, stingray and tons of other fish.
I had an amazing experience exploring underwater life even though I don’t know how to swim. Thanks to your entire team specially Yuan for your patience, kindness, and constant support, I felt completely safe and confident throughout the experience. You explained everything so calmly and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. Perla was amazing instructor too who made sure my family is safe and having fun together.
Thank you for making this such a beautiful memory for us. Highly recommended!
This was definitely one of our top experiences during our recent visit to Puerto Rico! Both of our guides, Juan and Freddy, were knowledgeable, considerate and fun. The boat ride to/from Vieques was a blast with good music and a relaxed vibe. The snorkeling was fantastic! We got to see lots of sea turtles, sting rays, and other wildlife. The snacks and drinks were way better than we were expecting. Highly, highly recommend doing a tour with this outfit! We will do it again if we are ever back in the area!
Absolutely incredible snorkeling tour in Vieques with Juan and Jesse! They were knowledgeable, fun, and made everyone feel comfortable in the water. We saw sea turtles, barracuda, and so many beautiful tropical fish and sea creatures. The water was crystal clear and the whole experience felt magical. One of the highlights of our Puerto Rico trip — highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Vieques!
Beautiful scenery, excellent friendly and knowledgeable guides, prompt, snorkeling was great. Juan is a marine biologist and Carlito is the captain. They were wonderful.
The guides are friendly, knowledgable, and professional. Love the sea life! There were only 20 people on the boat which was the perfect size with the three crew members on staff. We each got individualized attention. It was perfect!
Perfect half day excursion for families and first-time snorkelers! Had plenty of time snorkel at two different locations and walk on the beach. The staff were fun and informative and even made sure the little kids had a blast. Freddie swam with one little boy with a float the entire time so his parents could relax, so sweet! Not one person got seasick. Grownups had plenty of drinks and snacks. Would do it again!
Amazing experience with knowledgeable guides! The guides took the time to explain everything we needed to know about snorkeling to keep us safe. Drinks, Lunch and snacks were provided, which was so nice. The whole experience was more than we could have expected! We booked this excursion with our 7 year old kids and they had such a fun time! It was the perfect experience for all of us!

This was the best tour. The captain was great. We had to adjust the itinerary slightly to accommodate the weather but we were very happy the captain did so because we avoided crowds. The crew was great too, very knowledgeable and accommodating. One of the best parts was how great the captain and crew were with our kids, they let them “drive” the boat and they felt super cool : )
The crew were phenomenal. They were informative, funny and great with kids. They accommodated people who were uncomfortable or unable to snorkel. The boat was clean and well maintained.
We had so much fun! The staff was so knowledgeable and accommodating. When we were snorkeling, we saw turtles, sting rays, and much more!
This was an amazing experience! We saw turtles, rays and tons of other fish. Our guides were fantastic!
Awesome experience snorkeling and visiting a peaceful beach. Would book again. Great crew on the boat. Worth the time if you’re in PR!

Carlitos, Freddie, and Perla run a very organized, safe, informative, and fun snorkeling tour. The half-day trip out of Ceiba is a great alternative to the longer, all-day trips. Vieques was beautiful and the snorkeling was fantastic. We saw many turtles, and a slew of fish including a puffer and a barracuda. I highly recommend this excursion.

It is a great experience for the whole family captain Carlos and Freddy were excellent and helps us first timers with snorkeling, swimming and explore. Well worth what we paid for. My young son was afraid but he ended up snorkeling in the deep with Freddy’s help . The boat ride was perfect for a day full of adventure in vieques . It is a 10/10

It is always a heartwarming moment when our crew connects with kids or adults afraid of the water or snorkeling and help them overcome their fears. Such a great time ;)

Our guides were very friendly and informative. Vieques is beautiful! We saw sea turtles. Boat ride there we got very wet
Amazing tour with Carlitos, Perle, and Freddy! Carlitos was a fantastic boat captain. Perle was the trip “organizer:” she met us at the site, got our lunch orders, assisted Freddy with our guided snorkel, and was our bartender at the end. Freddy was able to show us octopus (octopi?), multiple sea turtles, a couple of stingray and more. Our friend group was 3 people total, and there were approximately 12 adults on the trip—but a perfectly acceptable trip for children around ages 10+.

Juan and his crew were amazing! It was a great boat ride out to the island. They anchored close to shore to start with. There was a reef to snorkel at at your own leisure, or you could walk along the beach. They had paddle boards that you could use if you wanted to. After about an hour, we got back on the boat for our included lunch/snack and drinks. They moved the boat into deeper water and then guided us to see sea turtles and sting rays. It was a lot more time in the water than other trips we've taken which is exactly what we wanted. And it was go at your own pace so you could have returned to the boat whenever you were ready to. All in all we saw: lots of fish, a green Moray eel, a lobster, sea cucumber, sea turtles, sting rays, barracuda, and a couple of nurse sharks. Will definitely do this again on our next visit to Puerto Rico.
This was an amazing tour. We met early and were the first boat to the snorkeling site. We had a guided tour, then anchored and were able to snorkel on our own. They also had paddle boards for us to use, snacks and drinks. Highly recommend.
