Our trip with East Island was the highlight of our vacation in PR. Our group was all adults, but it was a trip that I think could cater to all. Cayo Icacos was beautiful and the snorkelling was awesome! Boat was clean and very nice to hang out on and sip on a few rum cocktails. Lunch was really good and perfect after spending all day in the sun, and again the inclusive rum cocktails were a 10/10. The crew Captain Jose, Nathan, Carlitos, Javier, and Dave were awesome, friendly, and gave impecable service. I will definitely go again next year

This was an amazing excursion. The captain and staff are top tier in ensuring safety and an ideal experience. Our trip was rerouted due to currents and it was fantastic still. If coming from San juan expect a hefty cost to get to the dock in Fajardo.
The catamaran crew.....amazing!!!! Would definitely do this again. The shuttle from our hotel....never again!!! Will Uber or drive myself!!
Super nice boat! Great service. I’ve gone on some boats and it’s run down with cheaper drink options but this one blew me away
My husband & I took our 3 kids (ranging from 3 months - 7 years) on this excursion and we would absolutely do it again when we come back to visit. Looks of activities, swimming and laughs. Food was delish.
That was such a cool experience—crew on the East Wind II made the whole trip super fun. 100% would recommend it!
Most amazing experience possible! Everything was well organized the staff was AMAZING and attentive. Made sure we all were having a good time and well taken cared of. Made sure a drink in everyone’s hand, They helped anyone that needed an extra hand. (Kids and elders) I couldn’t have imagined a better experience. Alberto’s and Jeffrey’s crew 6 out of 5 stars!!!
I would do this experience all over again bc of the crew.
We had a great experience. Food and drinks were strong. Everyone on the boat was very nice. Boat was also very beautiful!
Nice trip to do as the activities and views are quite amazing. The seating could be better organized as people rushed on and tried to hold seats for other passengers
Had such an amazing experience! The food, drinks and staff were amazing! So much time spend in the sun and water😍
Amazing experience 10 out of 10! Had a great time on the boat and in the water. Crew and food was outstanding. What an awesome day!
We had the best time! They took great care of us! Snacks, water, unlimited alcoholic drinks, yummy lunch. Snorkeling gear! Plus snorkeling lesson if needed. I can’t recommend this excursion enough!!! The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable as well
We had a great experience during this excursion! The food was amazing, along with the crew- they were very professional and kind. We had a very safe and fun time.
I went with my boyfriend wanting to have a stress free experience and it was exactly that!! The crew was awesome and really took care of us and we had so much fun. Unfortunately it was rainy and cloudy when we went but overall it was still enjoyable and I really enjoyed the food and drinks
This was the best idea for our second day in Puerto Rico. Great service, very clean catamaran, yummy food, the drinks kept flowing, and two beautiful stops (one to swim and hang on beach, and another to snorkel). Highly recommend for couples, or groups.
Great good food, atmospheres , boat , crew workers.. the crew members on this boat was amazing , attended to all our needs. Xavier , Carlos , Cristian and Marta .,
Best day ever!!! They took us to some beautiful spots to swim and snorkel. The boat was so much fun and the slide on the back was awesome. The staff was sooooo nice and the bar was OPEN!!! :) thanks Marta!
Came for my bachelorette had a great time. The islands were beautiful lunch was great and the snorkeling was so fun
Wonderful excursion with a fabulous crew! Worth every cent! We definitely recommend it and we actually be back ourselves!
This was my favorite excursion we did by far! Got to snorkel, drink, eat, relax, swim! 6 hours went by quick so soak it all in! The staff was very friendly, funny, and helpful. I highly recommend!!
Had a great day. The crew went above and beyond. Lunch was good. Drinks were strong. Would definitely recommend.
Amazing excursion! Don’t hesitate to book—Icacos is absolutely beautiful and worth it.
The crews are so nice the ride was smooth
Food and drink 10/10
I went for my birthday I have the best time ever
What an amazing boat day! You definitely do not need to know how to swim they provide life vests, including the kind that straps around your waist, which made everyone feel safe and comfortable.
The food was absolutely delicious, the crew was friendly and helpful, and the entire experience was so much fun from start to finish. We had a wonderful time and made unforgettable memories. I highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Puerto Rico. It was truly a great experience!
6 hours a bit long. I think shorten by 1 or 1.5 hours would be perfect for most. Crew was great, water great but don’t need that much time. Lastly, reduce number of people by 5 or so. Seating is way too tight.
WAAAAY too many people packed on to the boat. Done these around the world multiple times! First one ever to pack 60+ people on to the catamaran! Usually nor more than 15-20. Makes the experience a little less enjoyable. Arrived at the already crowed island and as we were there it got even far FAR FFAARRR more crowded on the beach with ALL the other tours pulling up! Too many tours! With too full of boats! Need to DRASTICALLY reduce the number of people and yours. Again, makes the experience a little less enjoyable.
Other than that, staff was amazing, food and drinks were good! Just WWAAYYY too crowded. No reason to be sweating on one another!
The crew was amazing! My second time doing this excursion and I would do it again. Great music, great food, and even greater time
All the crew members were great and attentive. Lunch was perfect and the drinks kept coming. Definitely recommend.
Crew was great, food was great, boat fantastic and equipment for snorkeling was great. My only suggestion would be not to put as many people on the boat as seating was tight and couldn't have choice of seating.
We had an amazing fun time the service was amazing friendly and fun the food was great as well and I am so thankful I had lost my Apple Watch in the icacos location as we were leaving and I let them know and they tried everything in their power to help me and ended up finding my Apple Watch and bringing it to me I am forever thankful for that and just over all the amazing memories and experiences 💕💕💕
This experience was fantastic. Everything from the cleanliness of the boat to the delicious food and excellent crew was amazing. The beauty of the water and surrounding areas speaks for itself. Would absolutely do again!
The crew was great and the boat was awesome. However there were 80 people on board. Also, once we got to icacos, I found out you can take a water taxi and sort of get away from the crowds. And, like most reefs, it was struggling :(
