It was ok for a while, but then water kept getting in my mask. I started choking on the water and had to get out early. The instructor said that ppl with beards or mustaches have trouble sometimes and need to put Vaseline on their facial hair for it to seal right. Wish he would have told me that before I got in the water and choked a bunch of times.

My friends & I had the best time when we went yesterday, October 5th. It was a little nerve wrecking at first only because we didn’t expect the fish to be so close but it was awesome. Would 100% recommend. The tour guides were so friendly & extremely knowledgeable. The water was cold when first stepping in but the wetsuits helped a lot. All in all, it’s a blast! Definitely one to try.

The activity itself was good. However, we didn't like the communication and organization aspects. We called before reservation to check with the company regarding showering after snorkeling considering we were coming, only for the day to the island. They said that showering is available. After we finished snorkeling, we found that there is no close by place to shower and they didn't seem to care much about that problem. Additionally, they never mentioned in their ads that far away shower places takes cash only. In general we felt that the service was too much unorganized/inaccurate considering that we called them to ask. Also, the price, while not bad, doesn't seem to reflect the overall experience with a margin compared to similar snorkeling in Hawaii and other areas.

Professional and kind ( I have cancer ); lead kept an eye out for any emergencies I might have in the water. Perfect for beginners!
