It was an amazing experience. It's worth getting out of bed early for the best experience. We have seen two turtles, a stingray and fish. Very kind instructor and beautiful pictures and video's.

We really enjoyed our tour with Angeles and Elio! Communication before arriving and instructions during our trip were helpful and everything was perfectly organised. Being absolute beginners at snorkeling, they made us feel safe and comfortable. We did see many different fish swarms and a small sting ray, but no turtles unfortunately. Nevertheless the whole experience was awesome and definitely worth a trip. Thanks again, we had a great time!

Elio - our guide - was really nice and we felt very welcomed. We didn’t see any turtles but we saw barracudas and sting rays and had a fantastic experience. Also nice we were such a small group- 5 persons plus Elio. I can for sure recommend this trip
