This was a great way to experience snorkeling, super beginner friendly! Garrett got amazing videos he shared them with us, there was water available afterwards. We spent nearly 4 more hours here after the tour with our own goggles! Highly recommend!

My son & I did the jet propulsion snorkel and it was amazing! Cant recommend enough! We saw two turtles and so many fish. The guides were wonderful, too!
Julie_A, Jun 2026
V and Yari were amazing tour guides. It was our entire groups first time and they were extremely patient with us. Getting acclimated to the breathing was difficult but they walked us through it and we had an amazing, memorable experience. Seriously, could not have had better guides! Thank you!

I thought it a bit pricey for what we got. Our guide was great but we could have saved a bunch of money just using our own snorkeling stuff. The little motor powered jets were fun but my husbands died half way and he had to just swim. I wouldn’t do it again but my grands enjoyed it.

Hands down one of the neatest experiences. Garrett is such a professional. 10/10 without hesitation!
Trish_D, Jun 2026
This was a fun safe experience. Having two guides in the water with the group. The assist of jets was amazing and made it very easy for a weaker swimmer. Guides were amazing. We would do it again in a heartbeat!!

Good time snorkeling with the jets - definitely makes it easier to get around the bay. Got to see the sea turtle towards the end after our guides searched relentlessly. Great job!
David_R, May 2026
A fun chance to see green turtles in a sheltered harbor very close to San Juan. A great experience!!
Patrick_A, May 2026
Yeshua doesn’t like to positively treat participants with respect. He was extremely rude in the message he sent me. I can’t ever recommend this guy, and certainly not his service.
Response from Host, May 2026
Respect is a two way street.

Garett and Brady did a great job on our tour. We felt safe and knew what to do by their guidance. Garett’s thorough knowledge of the sea creatures and the area made the tour amazing. Brady provided great understanding water footage and memorable photos for us. Thank you!

"Unforgettable snorkeling adventure with my 10-year-old daughter on her birthday in San Juan, Puerto Rico! We spotted an array of fish and even some turtles, making for a magical experience. My daughter was beaming with joy, especially on the motorized pillar - she loved it! Garrett, our instructor, was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and made the experience truly special. A must-do in San Juan!"

Amazing experience, and nice and friendly instructor definitely recommended. Saw 3 beautiful turtles.
Lori_M, May 2026
Great experience- and I love snorkeling any time any day! The jet snorkel is so much fun and easy to do! We saw a beautiful young female turtle, and a lot of fish! They were not as colorful as I wished, but they were beautiful!
Yari and V were our guides and they were great! They stayed right with the group and got pics and underwater shots of everyone and then sent them to our phones!
My mother in law was just tickled to see me in action!
I’d highly recommend the tour!
America_S, Apr 2026
Worth the time and money!! Honestly we saw two turtles.. 3 total and the beauty of Puerto Rico along with a quick lesson on the biodiversity their ocean has. Our guide Garret was amazingggg!! Very knowledgeable and helpful and kind! *give him a raise please!* highly recommend
Loretta_H, Apr 2026
This was our first experience snorkeling and it went great! Our tour guides “I wished we could remember their names” but they were fantastic and attentive to the whole group! Definitely want to come tour with them again now that I won’t be as nervous. It was an amazing experience!!!
Alex_H, Apr 2026
Garrett and Yari are incredible tour guides, and helped us see so many cool marine life! The jets really helped you get around and fight against the currents.
Garrett and Yari also did an exceptional job describing how to move in the water, getting into the water, and how to operate the equipment and snorkel.
I unfortunately got turned around from our group and missed seeing the baby sea turtle, but I still had an amazing time on the snorkel adventure.
They also use a GoPro and captured all of the excellent videos and photos, so we didn't have to worry about bringing our phones with us, which would have been incredibly difficult to use.
10/10 experience, and this has been a lifetime memory of mine.
Torrie_J, Apr 2026
Yatey & v were great and very helpful ! They had alot of patience !!! It was my first time trying this activity .
Sandra_T, Apr 2026
Swimming no me Nomi what was the guys name again? What was the guys name againwith the turtles was an amazing experience. The two scuba instructors that led this excursion did an amazing job. Thank you Jared and Yary (I think that was the names). They were so sweet and professional. When we come back to Puerto Rico, we will definitely be doing this excursion again.

We got messages warning about tough parking so took an uber, but it was midweek so there was tons available even in the parking lot where you meet. The briefing is quick and thorough, the guides are friendly and knowledgeable. We had some strong waves so the jet was invaluable as we would have been exhausted trying to fight those currents, with the jet, you can just cruise around without having to depend on the flippers. Saw amazing fish, squid, and a bunch of turtles which was phenomenal. An amazing experience. I'd advise a long sleeve rashvest or similar as your upper back is going to get a lot of sun, as will the backs of your calves so maybe leggings also if you aren't used to oodles of sun
Julie_P, Apr 2026
Garrett did a great job of explaining how all of the snorkel gear worked- he pointed out interesting facts about the various fish we would be seeing- he was a great guide in the water- he made it a fun experience
linda_M, Apr 2026
Excellent experience- Garrett was a fantastic guide for our snorkel experience- we saw plenty of fish and turtles!! Highly recommend
Nora_M, Apr 2026
Great experience with my daughter. We saw turtles and lots of fish. Our guide was informative and helpful.
The company is both professional and environmentally responsible of the turtles, the fish and the natural habitat.
We had complete and easy communication from the booking process to when, where an how to meet for the our turtle encounter.
Sonia_J, Apr 2026
The experience was amazing. The 2 individuals who lead the excursion were very knowledgeable and helpful. We saw turtles swimming and coming up for air right next to me! Couldn’t have asked for better.
