Segeln und Schnorcheln am Cades Reef

This experience was pleasurable even for the nine swimmers or snorkelers. The picked us up early. We were told to meet/leave at 9:30. We got there at 9:05 and as soon as we got on the boat we left to pick up other passengers. This food was amazing and the beach stop was great!! The crew was fun. I would definitely use this company again.

The ride was great with commentary followed by music. Lunch was good and we had a beach break at Valley Church. There was an open bar on the way back after snorkeling. It was just a fun day all the way around.

Captain Blackbeard and his crew made it an enjoyable day out

Was an amazing experience, great tour guides! Elroy was amazing! Great vibes and energy… my only critique is that I wish the snorkeling was around 2 hrs instead of 1 hr. Had a blast though. The reef was beautiful and the company was great

Great music, great food, great snorkel time, fun boat ride! Would recommend this to anyone visiting Antigua.

A taxi from our hotel to the dock was arranged by the tour company for 9:15am. At 9:30am it still hadn’t turned up but thankfully our hotel concierge was on it and got us another driver who got us to the destination point with a little time to spare. With that hiccup out of the way we started a super fun day on the water. The crew were great and did a fantastic job keeping us safe, well fed, supplied with drinks, and entertained. Sadly the reef is mostly dead so don’t expect colourful corals but we did see plenty of fish, a ray, a small (harmless) shark and a small boat wreck. The reef wasn’t busy so we didn’t have to contend with other groups. The snorkelling was guided by a couple of crew members so we had the safest passage through the reef. Back on board a delicious lunch was served along with an array of alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks. Great music and some particularly fun fellow guests who danced like no one was watching 😁 made the journey back down the coast a lot of fun. A short stop at a beach on the way back too before disembarking where we began. A really fun day, just make sure to confirm and reconfirm your transportation to the dock so you don’t miss the boat!

Great trip with crew being great. Special shout out to Randy our guide who was awesome.

Staff were amazing. Was agreat time. Served a good meal. Lots of facts on this guided tour. Very helpful and felt safe in water with 2 assistance plus 1 in a small dinghy to help out if needed. Included a van transfer pick up from Royalton and dropped us off on our beach. Great value. Great communication on the app too.

We truly enjoyed our excursion from the time we departed the dock until the return. Our host, Elroy was fantastic. He presented a good mix of information on the area and entertaining us. Great sense of humour. He was easy to follow while snorkeling and the rest of the crew made certain everyone was safe both onboard and in the water. We highly recommend this tour.

Came in on a royalcarribbean cruise and this was perfect...you walk off the pier and keep to the right and the catamaran dock was really close (look for brown benches). The boat was great, the ride around the island was beautiful...but long...about an hour. Boat does have a bathroom. The reef itself as others mentioned is not in the best condition. We had 2 little kids and we struggled a bit but saw some colorful fish. Water was about 12' deep where we were at, and very clear. Spent about 40mins there and then on the way back stopped at a nice beach for another 40mins or so. Tons of shells and found a hermit crab. Kids really enjoyed this trip. Food and drinks were ok, nothing special. I'd suggest plenty of sunscreen, towels, and water and snacks for kids. Maybe even a card game or something to keep them occupied. The catamaran does have the cool front netting you can lay out on, and has a good amount of shaded area in the back if needed. Also, snorkels were obviously included but if you have kids I'd suggest buying the full face mask ones on Amazon and bringing them with you.
