The staff was amazing! The crew clearly loved their jobs and it showed. Everyone was so knowledgeable, helpful and genuinely kind. The boat was gorgeous and well maintained, actually the best boat bathrooms I’ve ever seen! Breakfast included pineapple, oranges, pastries and coffee: perfect start to the morning. We saw whales, dolphins, plenty of fish, and a turtle. Lunch was also just right; sandwiches, side salad, chips and drinks. Such an incredible experience and we were grateful for the hospitality. Would 100% book again! Thank you ❤️

The morning snorkel to Captain Cooks monument is phenomenal. Stops at two spots. Second stop is SPECTACULAR! Captain Mike clearly loves his boat and takes good care of her. The crew is friendly and helpful. Breakfast and lunch were very good. He took extra time to let us experience some sailing and when we ran into a pod of dolphins coming back he circled around slowly so everyone could see. I cannot say enough good things about this trip.

Great experience from start to finish. Crew is friendly and fun. They are very helpful about how to make your experience the best it can be. The boat was double catamaran with net hammocks in the front which were fun to sit on. They took us to 2 snorkeling spots - first one to warm up which was uncrowded and had cool arch the guides swam through.
They provide continental breakfast , lunch, water and soda plus reef safe suntan lotion. They provided 2 sizes of goggles (which is nice for teens and women to have smaller choice option), flippers and noodles.
One way back, they spotted pod of dolphins so we stopped to watch them.
Great crew, great day, beautiful catamaran!

The catamaran, staff, food, and snorkeling was excellent. Great value for the money. The staff was fun, professional and knowledgeable. The only complaint was that the catamaran was over crowded. Hard to find a place to sit in the sun.
