Incredible activity! The person who took care of us was very competent and lovely. He did not hesitate to lend me his professional mask and snorkel when mine were lacking. In terms of security, he was very attentive and vigilant. Also, we saw giant turtles and a variety of fish! We do not regret our excursion. The trip went very well and the support was great.

It was great! Enjoyed this tour from start to finish. Visited a beautiful snorkeling spot, then snorkeled again and saw a turtle and a manatee up close! Spotted dolphins along the way and also a manatee. Lunch was delicious and everything was well organized👍🏻

"Great guide, great driver, great tour - absolutely recommended for anyone who wants to 'go underwater'!"

the guy at the cafe who offers his drinks for a fee is superfluous given the drinks included

Nice team, great transport, great location, lots of turtles, no chasing of animals or people
