A wonderful experience. Our guides Christina and Cam couldn't have been more helpful or friendly. Loads of fish including my favourite, a blue groper!

We did not go do to the weather conditions it was a rainy cold day. We were refused a refund or a re schedule. Who wants to snorkel or go on a nature walk in the rain.

The experience was amazing! I’ve never been snorkeling but the instructor was helpful and provided guidance until I was comfortable to go alone. The views were so beautiful! Definitely a great experience for nature lovers.
