We were supposed to do this excursion on a small boat but we were grafted to another larger group on a catamaran. The organization was a little complicated to understand at first. The itinerary was the same: 3 snorkeling stops and 1 last stop on the sandbank el cielito, to eat the legs in the water, accompanied by magnificent rays that swim around us. Incredible experience thanks to this last stop, we highly recommend this activity.

Nothing to say!!! We saw lots of fish, 3/4 turtles and in the end in Celito it was the best beach I have seen in my entire life (and I have traveled a lot) honestly nothing to say it is magnificent

A well organized excursion. Everything included and we lacked nothing. We were on Aqua Dream 1 with a fantastic crew on board. We were the only Dutch on board but we got explanations in English.

My wife and I had a lot of fun, the show was very interactive and the crew went out of their way to involve everyone that was there. The meal was mostly meat and was prepared very well.

From the captain to the guide, everything was top notch. Very welcoming and there was everything your heart could desire.
