The two guides were really great. Both were informative and helpful. We were able to see so many fish, sharks, stingrays, turtles, and manatees. Great experience I would definitely go again.

It was an amazing day on the water. Our guide, Nick, was knowledgeable, engaging and funny! Sharks, rays, sea turtles and more types of fish of all shapes and colors! Lunch was authentic and a visit to Caye Caulker was included! We highly recommend this trip!

Paradise in the water
Davonta_J, October 2026
1000/1000. GREAT experiences all around. Your guides were very knowledgeable and knew everything about everywhere we went. It was our first time snorkeling so they were very patient and did not make us feel like we didn’t belong. Definitely coming back!

Last minute change.
Scott_B, September 2026
I booked a full day excursion, which didn't get confirmed due to insufficient number of participants. Instead a was added to a 3 hour excursion & refunded the price variance. It was a good experience and the guides were excellent.
Response from the operator · ovell2021 Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We're sorry that the Full day excursion couldn't be confirmed, but we're delighted to hear that you still had a great time and experience and that the guides were excellent.
