We loved our turtle excursion. The entire experience was so professional from the shuttle pickup to instructions to the swim itself. We saw several turtles and other marine life. One thing that was great which I was not expecting was the guide took hundreds of photos of the whole group / individuals / turtles and other things we were seeing with an underwater camera and you can download any you want for free. One tip for women taking the tour - the bobs blow back so do not wear a bandeau bikini or one shoulder one piece.

Everything about this experience was top notch! The driver who picked us up
From our resort , to the young woman who checked us in , and to the guides who were outstanding, friendly and extremely helpful in helping to use the equipment and guide us on this incredible journey! Of all the excursions we did in Antigua this was by far the best!
Judith_J, Jul 2026
Really excellent staff. There is no boat, you go in right from the beach. The service was informative and caring and they took time and didn't rush. We saw 2 turtles, a ray, a squid and the shipwreck. The scooter was really handy to cover a longer distance.
Jon_T, Jun 2026
Very fun. The water scooter is easy to use and allows you to see so much more. Our guides were friendly and knowledgeable.
Kyle_T, Jun 2026
From the moment we got picked it up it was truly a genuine guest experience. From our driver Bernie to the guys who took us out on the water you can tell that they absolutely love being on the water and getting to share their experience with guests
Douglas_F, Jun 2026
Absolutely amazing, I'm on my honeymoon with my wife and she is raving about how much fun this was. The entire staff was fantastic, we spent the most time with Rex and he went out of his way to show us Sea Turtles, Eagle rays, Squids, etc. This is absolutely worth every penny and I would absolutely recommend it.
Crystal_S, Jun 2026
Definitely a fun experience and the guides were all so nice. The only downside is the water is kind of murky and there’s not a whole lot to see. We saw a couple of sea turtles and few pretty fish. Glad we did it because of the guides - they were great, and it was fun to try a new way to snorkel.
Reginald_C, Jun 2026
Friendly staff, top notch experience! Would recommend for anyone! We saw stingrays, turtles, octopus and tons of fish variety
Jessica_P, Jun 2026
We really enjoyed the tour and were lucky enough to see several sea turtles as well as an eagle ray. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and provided helpful information throughout the experience. The only aspect we personally didn't enjoy was how crowded the snorkeling area felt. At times, people were swimming very close together, and it seemed like there was always someone passing in front of or beneath us, which made it a bit harder to fully enjoy the experience. Overall, it was still a memorable tour with great wildlife sightings.
Patrick_B, Jun 2026
Fun activity. The tour guides were fantastic and explained things well. They took a lot of pictures. Felt safe, but would recommend a smaller group in the future.
REGINA_L, May 2026
It was great. The best way to snorkel using the scooters. It does all the work for you. We really enjoyed it and especially seeing 4 sea turtles.
Molly_I, May 2026
so fun, so beautiful!! bumpy and long ride to get there so i'd sit towards the front of van if you get car sick but the ride was worth it!
Gio_C, May 2026
Fun exciting cool different great guide Can’t miss this, and the rum tasting after were a bonus Easy to do and great fun
Sean_R, Apr 2026
First time scooter snorkeling. It was an awesome experience. We saw turtles, stingray, shipwreck and more beautiful fish than we could count. Redick our fantastic guide was full of enthusiasm and great at finding sea-life.
Hotel pickup was on-time, van very comfortable and our driver was personable. An enjoyable ride back and forth to our hotel.
This a must tour if you are in Antigua .
Vanya_P, Apr 2026

Casey_W, Apr 2026
They picked us up at our hotel, drove us to the activity, provided instructions, guided and took photos of the activity! They were kind, respectful and fun! Would recommend this tour to anyone!
Claudia_P, Apr 2026
Staff was super friendly and patient. My daughter was very nervous and they handled her with care and patience.
Wish we saw more turtles, but that is nature.
Kerry_A, Apr 2026
It was amazing. Excellent safety introduction. The venue is idyllic and beautiful. The equipment was in top condition and instructions were easy to follow.
We saw turtles, gorgeous coloured fish and a sting ray.
Had a lovely morning and would 100% recommend and wish I could go back.
Oliver_D, Apr 2026
Fantastic experience. Useful to know it’s at Galleon beach, Loose Cannon. Very friendly staff. Free photos, free drink at the end! Really enjoyable. Many thanks
Jim_D, Apr 2026
Had a great day with the team. They were very helpful and the power snorkeling device was very easy to use.
Leanne_J, Mar 2026
It was great! Saw lots of f8sh, turtles and 2 eagle rays. Guides took lots of pictures which they email to you free!
Wes_R, Mar 2026
They work hard to make sure have an enjoyable experience!
We’re older and needed some help, but they were great and allowed us to have a great time!
Diane_R, Mar 2026
Excellent experience from start to finish. Bernie picked us up and drove through amazing scenery, giving us useful information along the way.
When we arrived we were greeted by friendly staff, willing to assist. After the H&S aspect we spend our time at various locations within the bay. The scenes were amazing. We saw numerous turtles and various fish. On the way back to shore we even saw a ray. All are amazing creatures.
I would like to thank all of the staff for making truly lifelong memories.
Kelly_H, Mar 2026
Do this tour! Terrific excursion! Would definitely do again. Bernie and the rest of the staff were great. We wanted local cuisine on our way back to the cruise ship. Bernie recommended Roti King and dropped us off there at our request, so glad he did. Don't miss this tour.
jason_K, Mar 2026
Very friendly. Saw a few turtles and sting rays. The water and bay are amazing. The scooter snorkels are a lot of fun and if kids are decent snorkelers they will do great
Meghan_S, Mar 2026
Amazing experience, once in a lifetime!
Brilliant guides who helped throughout, nothing was too much to ask for, all round great trip!
Tonya_C, Mar 2026
Cruise passengers, avid snorkelers, strong swimmers, & quality is important to us.
Pros for us:
- driver was reachable by phone & friendly
- the scooters are fun but more novelty
Cons for us: - 45 min drive each way from Heritage Quay, - 30 min orientation, gear getting, etc, - 1 hour snorkel time, - poor visibility on our trip
Overall not worth the time (2 hours) to snorkel (1 hour).
The 'kids in us' enjoyed the scooters.
Probably best for teens, kids, etc.
The staff has their system down pat. It's a well run machine. They are friendly and safe.
Overall though, we felt it was overrated.
kathy_b, Mar 2026
A fun & novel experience. The power scooters whizzed us around the ocean & facilitated us going deeper under water .
Rex our guide in the water was excellent, we felt very safe & well cared for .
Having a boat bobbing around expertly driven by Ibram if we needed it , was comforting .
Terri_S, Mar 2026
We really enjoyed our trip. The staff was great and we saw several turtles. For those considering this adventure, please make sure you are fit and can swim. Our adventure was delayed by those who couldn't.
Jeff_S, Mar 2026
Well done. A good 1.5 hours. Very attentive guide as well.
They don’t nickel and dime for extra costs for photos or a ride from the hotel either. So refreshing.
My son is 18 and a college freshman. A regular snorkel would bore the life out of him. This was way better. And for me who’s lazy and just wants to stay up top.
