Incredible experience! The whole trip was amazing—the views, the snorkeling time, everything was great. The crew was very friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. I went on February 21, and I totally recommend it!

Such a fun day out on the water. From start to finish everything was great! After arriving at the meeting point and checking in we were directed to the dock to board. Once on there was an array of pastries and fruit for breakfast along with water and coffee. On board we went across the water as the sun rose which was chilly so wear a jacket or sweatshirt. The water was a little too cold for us and were lucky that wetsuits were available to rent while on board. Unfortunately the water was a little "pea soup" looking causing us to reroute our plans which turned out fine and was handled really nicely by the crew. After snorkeling the crew served a deli style lunch with your choice of sandwich. Speaking of crew, they were fantastic! Very friendly and knowledgeable making it a pleasure on board and off. Thanks to Mario, Boz, and the Captain for making it a great day. Being prone to motion sickness I was totally fine after taking non-drowsy Dramamine. The boat is large which helps the rocking.

We had a decent time but were extremely underwhelmed by both destinations (crater and turtle town). Nonetheless - we felt that the boat vendor/crew did a good job. Overall I think the experience is vastly overpriced, and I wouldn’t recommend it - I would just say to go snorkeling offshore (for free) instead - you’ll see the exact same fish and turtles. Perhaps if this trip was $25 to $50 per person it might be worth it, but even that’s a stretch.
