The crew on this snorkel excursion was lovely. Very kind, patient and helpful guys who clearly take their jobs seriously and have a lot of love for marine life. I felt safe throughout. Snacks and drinks on offer were a nice touch.
This all said, the snorkeling itself was not ideal. The water was choppy, and I had a lot of trouble swimming from the boat to the reef. I am not new to the water, but I did get terribly out of shape during the covid pandemic. A lot of us in the group ended up coming back to the boat early, so I’m not the only one who struggled. But I see all these reviews saying small kids did this snorkel with no issue, so I am thinking it’s all about how calm the water is on the day you go. If there’s a lot of wind in the forecast, maybe pick a different day to go if you’re as out of shape as I am :)
Still giving five stars because none of this is the tour operator’s fault! They did a great job and if you do want to snorkel here you can’t go wrong with them.
