The crew was friendly, welcoming. They provided drinks and snacks throughout the excursion as well. Highly recommend bringing a water proof camera or phone case to take pictures of the sculptures under water. I would definitely recommend this cruise to anyone visiting St. Maarten!

    Beautiful fun day

    Gerald_S, Apr 2026
    Very short ride on the boat to the statues as they are right off shore. Statues are a beautiful sight. Captain Roy and his crew Ray were great. Super nice friendly service full and helpful. We loved it!!

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Hello Gerald, We appreciate your review and are glad you had a great time at the sculpture park. We’ll be sure to pass your compliments on to Captain Roy and Ray.

    The location of this...

    Krisztina_R, Apr 2026
    The location of this statue park is at a very busy resort, just a few meters from the coast. Since there are many boats, the water is not clear, but quite murky with many particles. Visibility on our day was not the best due to wind. The park is small; it was not a 'wow" experience for me. Organizers are friendly.

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Hello there, Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad to hear you found our team friendly. Visibility can vary depending on weather and sea conditions, and we appreciate your understanding. We hope to welcome you again under better conditions!

    Great Time. Enjoyed the beach and fort also.

    Scot_S, Mar 2026
    Get to meeting point early to enjoy the beach and a fort at the hotel before the excursion. Rent a car once you get off the ship. Look for the car rental signs. Drive to Divi Little Bay Beach Resort and at the guard gate tell them you have an excursion. Park in their parking lot. Find the beach rental shop on the beach. They will log you in. Have a great time. Also, bring an underwater camera.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Hello Scot, Thanks for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the beach, fort, and the snorkel adventure. Appreciate the tips for future travelers!

    Sculpture snorkeling adventure

    Steve_S, Feb 2026
    Were able to view the sculptures as well as other underwater structures with more fish species. Crew were helpful and pleasant. Snorkel equipment was well fitting and in good condition. If not staying at the Divi resort, arrange for taxi pickup 30 min after the trip ends as taxis may not be readily available otherwise, especially if not staying in Phillipsburg.

    Response from Host, Feb 2026

    Hello Steve, Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed viewing the underwater sculptures and marine life. It’s great to hear our crew and equipment met your expectations. We also appreciate you sharing the helpful taxi tip for future guests. Hope to see you again soon!

    Super fun snorkeling

    Our guides were very thorough and helpful! The statues, wildlife and sea wreckage were super cool to see.

    Response from Host, Feb 2026

    Hello Peyton, Thanks for snorkeling with us! We’re so glad you enjoyed the sculptures, wildlife, and wreckage; they’re definitely among our favorite sights, too. Huge shoutout to our guides for making the experience fun and informative. Hope to see you back in the water with us soon!

    Underwater Statues On Steroids

    Dwight_U, Jan 2026
    The boat ride to the statues are literally 2 minutes away from the pick up spot but worth the distance. Make sure to venture the entire circle that outlines the statues.

    Response from Host, Jan 2026

    Hello Dwight, We’re glad you enjoyed the experience! The boat ride is intentionally short so you can spend more time in the water, and we’re happy you found it worthwhile. Great tip about venturing the full circle around the statues! We hope to welcome you back again soon!

    Great tour!

    Lauren_S, Jan 2026
    Absolutely loved it! The staff were friendly, funny and knowledgeable. Very much enjoyed the trip and looking forward to taking it again.

    Response from Host, Jan 2026

    Hello Lauren, Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re happy to hear you had such a great time with our crew. We’d love to have you join us again.

    Captain Roy was great!...

    lynn_m, Dec 2025
    Captain Roy was great! Statues are a great honor bestowed to st Martin's peoples .highly recommend to any visitor

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    Hi Lynn! Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so glad you had a great experience with Captain Roy and truly appreciate your recommendation. Hope to welcome you back soon!

    Not worth the time

    Susan_C, Nov 2025
    We could’ve literally snorkeled from the island to the statues ourselves. The boat ride was only a few minutes! The captain seemed pretty annoyed with us, though. He didn’t even want to take out the snorkeling fins, and he basically said that if we’d never used them before, he didn’t want to get in the water and deal with getting them for everyone. But the first mate was wonderful — super helpful and actually made the experience better.

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Hi Susan, Thank you for spending the day with us. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the support and hospitality from our first mate. Our tour route is intentionally short to give guests more snorkel time at the statues. We appreciate you sharing your feedback; it helps us fine-tune the experience for future guests.

    The tour guides were nice...

    Jasmine_M, Nov 2025
    The tour guides were nice and gave us some drinks, and the sculptures were very cool. It was fairly short but perfect if you want to do other things or you're stopping in from a cruise.

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the experience and the hospitality from our guides. This excursion is designed to be a quick, fun stop for cruise passengers or busy travelers, so we’re glad it fit your plans. Thank you for joining us, and would love to have you back soon!

    This was ok.

    tinahindi, Nov 2025
    The staff when you check in were rude. That left a bad impression. The staff that picked you up and take you to the site were nice. Make sure you have cash they operate off of tips. They do give you soda if you need and water. The jolly rancher was a nice touch. Having a jolly rancher help with getting rid of the salt

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Thanks for sharing your experience! We’re glad the crew on the water made your day enjoyable and that the little touches like drinks and the Jolly Rancher were a hit. Check-in can get busy, but we’re always working to make it smooth for our guests.

    A MUST do experience

    Teressa_B, Nov 2025
    This experience was so much fun! The underwater sculptures are incredible. Only wish I had was more snorkeling experience so I could have enjoyed it better. It sure takes a certain knack to get it right I think. The crew was so great and willing to help out in any way!

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Hi Teressa! Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re delighted to hear you had so much fun and enjoyed the underwater sculptures. We appreciate your kind words about the crew, who are always happy to help guests get the most out of the experience. We hope to welcome you back soon for even more snorkeling adventures!

    Good experience. Not bad for price.

    Dan_V, Oct 2025
    Nice. Not the best we have had on snorkeling trips though. Trip was quite limited area was small compared to other experiences.

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Hi Dan, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for joining us on a snorkeling trip! We’re glad you enjoyed being out on the water, though we understand you’d hoped to explore a larger area. This particular excursion is designed as a shorter experience (1.5 hours), but for guests wanting to see more of the island’s beautiful underwater life and visit multiple snorkel spots, we highly recommend our half-day or full-day tours. We’d love to welcome you back for one of those adventures soon!

    Best 1.5 hr Morning activity

    Cristi_J, Oct 2025
    This was a great Morning activity for snorkeling. I highly recommend this boating company and the sites to see all monuments, sunking Helicopter and Submarine with ocean floor walk way. Great fish & they love bread. They all come running.. lol

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Hi Cristi, Thank you for your recommendation, it means the world to us! We are happy you enjoyed your snorkeling trip with us!

    The pick-up was very...

    LeAnna_O, Aug 2025
    The pick-up was very close to the snorkeling sites. We got to visit two different places and the guys were friendly without being overbearing.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Hi there, Thank you for your review! We're glad you enjoyed the snorkeling spots and that the pick-up was nice and close. Also great to hear the crew was friendly without being overbearing, we really appreciate you pointing that out. Hope to see you again!

    Great value for a $35 two dive trip! Friendly and easy entry/exit. Nice ice cold refreshments. Will return

    Hello there, Wow, that is great! We are so grateful you chose to do your first snorkeling time with us, and even more that your experience will be remembered! See you next time!

    One of the coolest things...

    Perfected_E, May 2025
    One of the coolest things we’ve ever seen!! Not too far from the bay, sculptures weren’t too deep. The gear was in good condition and staff were nice.

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Hi there, Thank you for your review, we're glad that you enjoyed your trip to see the underwater sculptures and that you had a great experience with our staff! See you soon!

    Fun Time

    Sharon_C, May 2025
    This was a great experience. I loved the underwater statutes. The water was warm. I could have stayed in the water all day!

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Hi Sharon, Thank you for your feedback, it is nice to hear that the Sculpture Park was a great experience for you, and we can't wait to see you back on board soon hopefully!

    Statue garden snorkling

    Patricia_M, Mar 2025
    The workers rushed the people and didn’t help them fit masks or flippers. I personally was injured at the dock when the boat lunged due to big waves. They didn’t check on me, just started yelling at me to sit (I was trying to get in the boat to sit) The snorkeling area was cool and they took the group to another site because time allowed which was nice. The other issue was not their fault but I got very motion sick and the waves were rough. I ended up swimming back to shore and they let me and didnt call for help or even watch me swimming away. No one snorkeled with the group to make sure they were safe, the crew didn’t watch the group. We did sign a “snorkel at your own risk” waver which obviously was very true. But again, the spot was cool but not even worth the short boat ride to the site (remember I swam back)

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Hi Patricia, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry to hear that you had a difficult time during your trip, and we sincerely apologize for the injuries you sustained and the lack of support you received in that moment. Your safety and well-being are our top priorities, and we take your feedback seriously. We will address the crew’s handling of the situation and ensure they are more attentive to guests in the future, especially during boarding and disembarking. We are nonetheless grateful that you enjoyed the snorkeling sites and saw the underwater sculpture park.

    Very cool!

    Priscilla_W, Mar 2025
    It was fun. Water was pretty murky and hard to see. Not their fault, it would have nicer if it was clear. We didn't get much of a boat ride as the sculptures are a couple hundred meters from the dock. That was a bummer too. I would try it again though!

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Hello Priscilla, It is good to hear that you did not let the weather impact your excursion and that you would try it again with better weather, which I am sure will be fantastic! Cheers to your next try, it is really beautiful to see!

    Seeing the sculptures was...

    Maureen_R, Feb 2025
    Seeing the sculptures was a little difficult on the day that we went due to wind and cloudy water, but you could see the sculptures as you were closer to them. It was really amazing and we loved it.

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Hi Maureen, It sounds like you had an adventurous experience with the sculptures! We are glad that you had a good time with us and are hoping to see you soon again!

    Fun Snorkeling Trip

    Pamela_D, Feb 2025
    The Monuments Snorkel trip was fun and the crew were great. Their boat and gear are high quality and well maintained. You can see the monuments area from shore, so this is not a very long boat ride. But the equipment, drinks, and expertise make it a good value.

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Hi Pamela, That sounds like such a fun trip! It’s great to hear that the crew was amazing and that the boat and gear were top-notch! It’s always nice when you can enjoy both the adventure and the expertise of the crew!

    Good time and fun to see!

    Elisha_S, Feb 2025
    The sculpture garden is located in Little Divi Bay, in about 15' of water. Easy snorkeling. Visibility is reduced in choppy water/windy days. Morning trips may have calmer water. Of

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Hi there, Happy to hear that you had fun exploring the Underwater Sculpture Park and that you had a good time with us! We understand that visibility can be impacted by choppy water and windy conditions, which is unfortunately out of our control, but we hope you still enjoyed snorkeling!

    Super easy and convenient...

    Mark_C, Dec 2024
    Super easy and convenient snorkeling experience in a beautiful bay with crystal clear waters. All the staff were great!

    Response from Host, Jan 2025

    Hi Mark, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the snorkeling and the beautiful bay. I’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to our team. We hope to see you again soon!

    Worth the Money

    Don_M, Dec 2024
    Was a great time with alot to see. The statues were spread out so everyone wasn't jammed in one area which was nice. To our surprise after we were done with them we were taken to another spot close by to see some more underwater items. This was my wifes first time snorkelling and she found it very easy. Can't beat the price with equipment and drinks included. Staff were all great to deal with and would highly recommend to anyone interested.

    Response from Host, Dec 2024

    Hi Don, Thank you for your kind review. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your snorkeling experience and that the setup made it comfortable for everyone to explore at their own pace. It’s great to know your wife had such a positive first time snorkeling, what a memorable experience! We’re also pleased that you found the price, equipment, and drinks to your liking, and it’s wonderful to hear the team made a good impression. Thank you for recommending us. We’d be happy to welcome you back on another adventure in the future!
