Thank you very very much for the amazing experience.

Our guide Hannah was great and knew her stuff. Pictures were not the greatest but conditions made it difficult to get good photos. Cannot blame tour.
Great start if you plan on going out to ocean.

We had such a great time! Everything was super fun and well put together. Dani was very friendly and made the whole experience even better. Definitely worth it and would recommend it to anyone looking for something fun to do. Would 100% do it again!

Amazing! Our instructor, Hannah, was so helpful, funny, and nice! We were a bit nervous coming in but everything was so fun and easy to do for beginners/ no experience in the ocean.

I'm a solo traveler and new to snorkeling. The guide made me feel comfortable and safe throughout the experience.

We had a “private tour” because we were the only ones scheduled at our time. Nick did a great job teaching us the basics of snorkeling. We got to see some cool marine life including the state fish.
Jackie_L, Apr 2026
Our instructor, Reda is very funny. He made lot of jokes to make everyone feel comfortable for the entire time included my nervous husband who usually does not feel good in the water.
However, the experience was only about an hour not an hour and half though.
Rocco_G, Mar 2026
Excellent for beginners. Nick was a thoughtful teacher who made you feel comfortable snorkeling for the first time.

OMG this experience was AMAZING and honestly worth way more than what I paid. I first thought it was a scam because it was so affordable — but WOW, it exceeded all expectations. Daniel was an incredible instructor, constantly checking in and making sure I felt safe and comfortable the whole time. He took photos and videos for FREE, which turned out absolutely beautiful. I didn’t even know how to swim before this, and it was totally beginner-friendly. If you’re nervous or new, this is 100% the place to try. Highly, highly recommend! Definitely highlight of my trip!!!!

Weshely_K, Nov 2025
Good for beginners. A safe enclosed space for snorkeling. If you want more of an open experience it won't offer.

Hannah was great! Very informative and friendly. She took many videos and pictures on our excursion. We did not take a boat out, but left from shore.

KAREN_G, Jul 2025
My son & I signed up for the beginner snorkeling class. Our guide Nick was great! He was patient with his explanation, and put us at ease. I would definitely recommend. The the snorkeling company was communicative when I had emailed with questions about storage for personal items. They had responded that all personal items are stored in a bug box for free and is monitored while class is on session. This was definitely ideal and put me at ease.

Great beginner experience for us! Nick was a wonderful guide and it was a great start to our vacation.

Our instructor, Jenny was very friendly and helpful to us. She made sure we were comfortable and understood how to snorkel safely. The location was beautiful and beginner friendly. We would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to try out snorkeling.
Lacey_T, Jul 2025
Had a great time with Jenny, she was super patient and explained lots as she towed me around the lagoon. She let me go at my pace for different things, explained both saftey and interesting facts, and made sure to point out interesting points along the way. I am not a confident swimmer but felt this was great for a beginner
Sandie_B, Jun 2025
Very family friendly! Nick was our snorkeling instructor and was excellent. It was perfect for first time snorkeling. It was a small group which was a great way to learn. Definitely worth it!
Mallory_H, Jun 2025
Excellent experience! Our guide Reda was patient with first timers and knowledgeable about reef life. We even got awesome videos of our experience at the end. Highly recommended!
Bikash_S, Jun 2025
Doesn’t worth money . Just step down in a lagoon in swallow. Watch some small fishes. Said 1.5 hours but finished in 45 min.
Jasmine_N, Jun 2025
It’s worth the price! Nicholas took us a family of four and two other young ladies to an unforgettable adventure in the lagoon.
Julie_N, May 2025
My snorkeling was cancelled last minute and I have called several times for a refund and still unable to receive one. I want my money back as I was not able to reschedule due to other activities that were already scheduled.
Nolan_S, May 2025
Our guide was Nick. It was our first time snorkeling and Nick did a great job explaining how to use the gear and made us feel at ease. Would definitely recommend this for any first timers!
amanda_g, May 2025
Unfortunately, due to unsafe conditions we weren't able to participate. However the company was super polite and kind. Especially when we had to cancel (not rebooking) due to other activities planned. Ensuring my families safety is very important. So Thank you from my family to yours .
