Snorkeling with turtles
fcmccoy, October 2026
J. O. was a great guide. The tour started on time, he gave clear directions and kept everyone together . Our group had varying experience so the shallow and calm water made it a relaxing experience. We saw turtles and all kinds of beautiful fish.

Gorgeous Janice and Jose are incredible! Janice is hilarious and I feel like literally anything with her would be a blast! Jose was very friendly, helpful, and nice as well.
Oh, ALSO, my Gopro decided to shut itself off when we walked into the water. Cool, I know... BUT they get videos for you so you can just go and enjoy and they'll capture some memories for you to cherish the super cool experience!

Fun Nonetheless!
Kelsey_G, October 2026
My partner and I had an absolute BLAST! The weather kicked up quite a bit of the sea floor so there wasn’t much visibility, but we still had fun, the guides were exceptional, and we would recommend this company to anyone wanting to snorkel in Puerto Rico!

Snorkeling and Sea Turtles
Laura_M, October 2026
We were the only 2 people in our group. Our guide Janice went out of her way to make sure we saw the sea turtles we were seeking. I saw 3 and my husband saw at least one. We also saw sea cucumbers, blue Dory, and a multitude of other fish. Having the video after is such a great touch. Showing all my family and friends videos of the sea turtles.
