“The crew knew the area very well and we had an enjoyable morning snorkelling with turtles, sting rays as well as reef fish. Communication was prompt, pick up/drop off was smooth, and the included lunch was delicious. The highlight of the experience was when we got in the water with a pod of Dolphins that were swimming by. The captain was super knowledgeable and walked us through how to get in safely, without disturbing them. Overall, highly recommend the tour and would do it again.”
