The snorkeling experience was super fun and the tour guides were very knowledgeable. It was easy to locate the meetup point and the briefing was quick. Escambron Beach was absolutely beautiful with clear and warm water with bright sand. The snorkeling company also recommended us to move our booking to 9am as they said it would be calmer with more fish. It didn’t disappoint as we saw plenty of fish and even a baby sea turtle!! Our tour guide was Jill, and she did a great job capturing videos while also making sure we were safe. She spotted the baby turtle for us and made this a trip to remember. We snorkel on vacation often but this will be one that always stands out. Would gladly book again! Thank you to Jill and the rest of the team.

Noah_R, Jun 2026
We were Guided by Jillian. She did a great job helping us get setup and finding us a pair of beautiful turtles. The whole experience was easy, fun, and well managed.

Abby was very informative and helpful. Very passionate about safe water and keeping the aquatic life healthy, safe and preserved. Descriptive with each detail along the way!

1. They don’t have a place to lock up your personal items. They have a bucket you toss items in.
2. Come dressed to go in swimsuit. No bathrooms.
Jessica_R, Jun 2026
Nice way to wrap up our vacation. Quick experience and it was made easy by knowledgeable tour guides.
Marshall_R, Jun 2026
Juana was very helpful. Some folks in our group had troubles, but she managed to handle all the problems and make sure everyone had a safe and good time.
I have snorkeled and scuba dived, but my girlfriend was new to the activity, so we went with this outing. It was good for folks who just want to try the sport without any risk in a controlled environment. We had a good time together, and got to see a live sea turtle.

It is from the shore and not a boat but very personal and even passes over ruins of a building.
My husband lost his Ray Bans and our tour guide Abby went out of her way to go look for them and found them and let us know and we were able to recover them!!

Tour guide was great. The water was murkier than I expected. I was also discouraged that we were not able to use our own snorkel equipment as we hoped to take our own underwater photos (with GoPro mount on gear). I know that tour guide does video but we were excited for some pictures too (which we didn't get). That wasn't the guides fault as she said it was the tour policy. The experience was wonderful other than the water conditions.
Joyce_A, Jun 2026
Very good. Juanita very conscientious. It was lots of fun. Kids age 13 thru 15 enjoyed. Definitely recommend
Colby_M, Jun 2026
It was a wonderful experience the tour guide was very friendly you also get FREE photos and a video included in the price that was great.
MaryJane_M, Jun 2026
The folks that did the tour were as sweet as could be. It was a beautiful spot, but it lacked sea life. We saw one turtle. A couple of fish. It wasn’t the tropical aquarium like scene we had anticipated.
Maria_C, Jun 2026
Isa was amazing! She was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole snorkeling tour so much fun. We got to see sea turtles and lots of beautiful fish, which made the experience even more memorable. She made everyone feel comfortable and ensured we had a great time. I highly recommend booking a tour with her! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
ERIC_W, Jun 2026

Jazmin_D, Jun 2026
Yariel was great ! He made us feel comfortable getting in the water and also did a great job finding us a lot of sea life to look at. I would highly recommend this experience and will definitely be bringing family here when we come back !
Kailyn_V, Jun 2026

Randi was an amazing tour guide and showed us all of the sea life. She also took great photos and videos of us! This tour was very easy to find and the guides were super friendly and great.
Laurie_K, Jun 2026
Isa was amazing with our non-swimmer and assured that EVERYONE got to see the turtles and fish. Amazing experience
JohnMichael_P, Jun 2026
Our guide, Yariel, was absolutely amazing and very knowledgeable. He made sure that we all had a pleasant experience. Would definitely recommend!
Gary_K, Jun 2026
Excellent for inexperienced or those new to snorkeling. The abundance of sea life was not great but adequate.
Ricardo_R, Jun 2026
It was an amazing experience, Yamil was our guide and did an amazing job making sure everyone was safe and got to see everything! Got to see some sea turtles and the marine life around there, would definitely recommend 10/10!
Ewa_P, Jun 2026
Fantastic experience! Had our 8 year old son with us and the guide was very accommodating. Pointed out fish and turtles.
Kim_G, Jun 2026
We had a great snorkel tour. Our guide Kensi was wonderful . We saw three different turtles and different fish. She made sure everyone was as safe and comfortable and able to see everything. It was definitely a highlight of our trip
Lunden_S, Jun 2026
The instructor was kind, however he sent the wrong video and pics. It was a bombshell we was so excited.
MaryAnn_N, Jun 2026
They break up the groups by experience, which is nice. The cove can get a bit crowded when all groups are in the water. The sea was choppy and thus the water a bit murky, but you did get to see schools of fish and we did see a baby sea turtle which was very fun. Our tour guide Yamill was awesome and he took great pictures of us all and the fish and turtle that we saw. We had a great time. Just some details. They will require you to wear life vests. The gear is of good quality and we did not have any issues there. They do have a bin to store your stuff like phones and purses and shoes.
Brianna_F, Jun 2026
Abby was an absolute delight & made this experience one that I will never forget. We saw so much aquatic life & was able to take some dope pictures & videos. If you’re hesitant about it especially with no experience snorkeling, DO IT, push yourself to try something new bc this is one you will not regret embarking on trust! Plus with Abby as your guide you will definitely be in great hands!
Cloe_P, May 2026
Yamil was a great guide , super friendly ! He made sure everyone got to see the sea turtle and other fish before we moved on ! 10/10 so fun and recommend !
Annabella_M, May 2026
SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! We were told to schedule this adventure in the morning because you pretty much guaranteed to see at least one turtle. Not true. Not one Sea turtle. This location was so crowded with at least 4 to 5 separate groups about to go out in the small area and about 5 groups out in the water already. We were told this would last 1 1/2 hours. It lasted 45 minutes. They include a 1/2 hour instruction of what to do with your stuff in shore and the guide’s information on the shore for all 50 people from other groups to listen to. We saw a few fish in the corner by rocks but that was it.
Anastasia_M, May 2026
We were so excited for this tour got there and no one was there , the tour guide called us after 20 mins of waiting and cancelled no heads up or anything! Also was told we had to contact someone to get a refund.
