Very cool snorkel spot...

Daniel_H, Mar 2026
Very cool snorkel spot outside Sydney to see some great marine life. One on one tour with Carlos who was great! Lots of photos and videos included in the tour as well.

Amazing time. Highly recommend

This was an amazing experience and highly recommend it to others. Pipa was so patient and helpful with us for our first ocean snorkeling adventure. Our photos and videos will be cherished forever.

Little Bay Snorkel

Cathy_W, Apr 2025
Absolutely wonderful private snorkel. Due to expected rough conditions at the original location, the snorkeling at Little Bay was amazing. Communication about the change was complete and very clear. Pippa was a great guide and all equipment was perfect.

Response from Host, May 2025

Thanks so much for joining us! Little Bay definitely offers some amazing snorkeling, and we're thrilled that you had such a fantastic experience there. It's great to hear the communication made things easy, and that you enjoyed having Pipa as your guide. I'll pass on your kind words. Hope to see you again soon!

Great Job by Pipa!

Pipa gave us a wonderful snorkeling experience! It was our first time and she was both patient and very nice! Pipa was great to my 12 year old son too!

Response from Host, May 2025

Thanks so much for snorkeling with us! It’s awesome to hear your first experience went so well. Pipa told me that she had a great time in the water showing you the marine life. We’d love to have you join us again!
