Customer Reviews

It was a great time and one of the best excursions we have ever taken! The crew was amazing and the scenery was beautiful. Loved the turtles.

Skipper Jason and his First Mate, Rory were amazing hosts! The drinks were flowing regularly too. Rory swam down and found fish and turtles for us to see. The photos Rory took are amazing and available free of charge, which is fantastic. We had the best day – only wish we could do it all over again. Thank you.

We had an awesome experience with Jason & Rory. In addition to seeing lots of turtles when snorkeling we also also saw four humpback whales in the distance. Jason really knew the best places to snorkel and Rory was awesome underwater. Great couple of very nice guys that made our day with them the highlight of our trip.
