Lots of fun and plenty of time to snorkel. The boat has two levels and the captains were kind and helpful. We went snorkeling in two locations and had a blast. Fun for all ages.

We loved this snorkeling experience! I wish they had given better directions to the meeting point. I was a little surprised that they did not do a safety overview. Fine for us; we are experienced. There was a group that had never snorkeled before though. They had certain rules about which area to stay in, but I didn’t hear those mentioned.

Service was fab, Peppe messaged me in the morning and gave me the address asking if I needed parking, which I did. He met us there on his moped and showed us where to park then escorted us to the boat. It was a lovely boat with upstairs chilling out area (benches, rug, pouffes to sit on and space for sunbathers to lie down). On board was a toilet. We sailed to the first spot where we were given flippers and snorkeling equipment. After 45mins we moved on, there were snacks and drinks for us. Our second spot we stayed around 30mins. Some people got stung by jellyfish but Peppe had cream for them. It was a fun day and we all enjoyed it. My 7yr old was nervous about the water but there were life vests and woggles so that helped her feel better.

We had a pleasant boat trip along the coast between Naxos and Taormina. Supplied equipment is adequate and instructor was knowledgeable. Not too much to see in the waters except for some schools of grey fishes, but a great snorkel introduction overall. Worth the price.

What a great way to spend an afternoon in the sunshine surrounded by fab views.
Boat tour was informative, fun and exciting with bursts of speed leaving you screaming and laughing at the same time.
Loved the snorkelling, saw some beautiful/colourful fish up close and personal, a great experience.

We enjoyed the boat ride across the bay on the way to the snorkeling site and chatting to our lovely fellow snorkelers. The equipment provided was excellent and fitted well. We saw so many beautiful fish. It was an amazing experience.

We went on this snorkeling tour in Taormina. The boat was very nice and the crew was great. The water was very clear and the views are spectacular. There were a lot of fish and some big orange jellyfish which didn't sting but were cool to watch. One person on the trip got stung by a smaller jellyfish but she was the only one. The fish are not as colorful as the fish in Hawaii or the Caribbean which is why I didn't give the trip 5 stars but glad we did it and would recommend this company.

One of our favorite things that we did on our trip to Europe! From the beginning of the excursion to the end they took such good care of us. We had trouble finding the meeting point and called the phone number given and they helped us find them quickly. The water and the fish were absolutely beautiful. Would recommend 10/10!
