A really nice way to chill out in the Ocean. The crew was very helpful and friendly. The only downside was that once we got into the water, it became very crowded not only because of our own group but also due to all the other ones. Sometimes it didn't feel very safe.

It was a mellow reintro back to the waters for me and my family. Even though I stayed on the board I saw a turtle gliding under me, after all the commotion of others left. And my family went to see the turtles and they saw them. Only reason I wouldn’t give a 5 stars is that if you’re experienced snorkeler this might be too relaxed for you. And my kids complained about the snorkels not fitting properly. Overall it was a relaxing way to get back into the ocean after a couple of years of not being in it and having health issues. Mahalo!
