We had a fantastic time on the snorkeling adventure with our family and friends! Everyone in our group truly enjoyed the experience. A huge shoutout to our guide, who was incredibly informative and made the trip both safe and fascinating. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re so happy you, your family, and friends all had such a great time snorkeling with us. It means a lot to hear that your guide helped make everyone feel safe, informed, and excited to explore the reef. We truly appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome your group back for another ocean adventure!
Booking was easy and I was sure to book straight with Rincón Dive and Snorkel on the morning snorkel. Shawn was very uppity and excited to share about the different sea creatures. The briefing was quick and the meeting spot was easy to find. I enjoyed time in the water. It was clear, easy to swim, gear worked and saw lots of fish and some turtles. Good attitude and nice adventure.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review, Miles. We’re so glad you had a smooth booking experience and enjoyed your morning snorkel with us. Shawn will be so happy to hear that her enthusiasm and knowledge about the local marine life helped make the tour fun and memorable. Clear water, easy swimming, working gear, lots of fish, and turtles sounds like a great day in the water! Thank you for choosing to book directly with Rincón Diving & Snorkeling, we truly appreciate it and hope to welcome you back for another adventure.
Our guide was amazing! We were working with a little bit of rough seas but she was able to help us navigate easily. We saw turtles ans lots of fish. It was really a great time
Thank you so much, Lea! We’re so happy you had a great time and got to see turtles and so many fish. Even with a little bit of rough water, we’re glad your guide helped you feel comfortable and navigate the conditions with ease. We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to see you again soon!
We went sorkeling with our guide Shawn today, she was fabulous. We were all well briefed, they made sure our gear fits us very well before leaving the shop and the gear was much better than the usual stuff. The reef is accessible from shore, which made the experience so seamless. We saw all types of coral, fish (including a huge angel fish) along with a huge turtle and several smaller ones.The big one seemed to hang around our group and just feed at times surfacing close bye. This shop is well worth giving your business to and see if Shawn is available for your guide. Enjoy!
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review David! We’re so glad you had such a great time snorkeling with Shawn. She really loves sharing the reef with guests, and we’ll make sure she sees your kind words. It sounds like you had an amazing day out there between the turtles, coral, and that huge angelfish! We’re happy the gear, briefing, and easy shore entry all helped make the experience feel smooth from start to finish. We really appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you back in the water with us again soon!
Cool experience, saw a sea turtle and squid! Lots of fish. The instructor Shawn was great at point things out. I Would recommend!

Shawn was very knowledgeable and patient. She made it possible for my sister to experience snorkeling with us.
Thank you, Evelyn! We’re so happy to hear that Shawn helped make the experience possible for your sister and that your family could enjoy snorkeling together. Patience, safety, and making everyone feel comfortable in the water are such an important part of what we do, and we’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Shawn. We’d love to have you all back for another ocean adventure anytime!
I’ll start by saying that our guide Shawn was FANTASTIC. She was fun but made sure everyone was safe as well. She was so patient and helpful. We had an issue with my daughter’s goggles flooding and she fixed it on the spot in the water! There was a woman in our group that couldn’t swim(why she booked a snorkel trip is beyond me) but anyway Shawn was SO patient with her and ended up having to swim her back to shore. Safety and comfort level was very important to her. I went with my husband and 2 teenaged girls and we had a blast. When we got in the car they both said “that was the coolest thing I’ve ever done. 10/10 book it.
Thank you for such a thoughtful review, Courtney! We’re thrilled to hear that your family had such a great time with Shawn. She really is fantastic, and we love that you experienced the balance she brings to every tour: fun, patience, and safety. We’re especially glad she was able to help with the mask issue right away and make adjustments so your daughter could keep enjoying the experience. Every guest has a different comfort level in the ocean, and we’re proud of Shawn for handling the group with care and making safety the priority. Hearing that your girls said it was “the coolest thing” they’ve ever done absolutely made our day. Thank you again for choosing us, and we’d love to welcome your family back for another adventure in Rincón anytime!
Thanks Shawn for a great snorkeling adventure! You made me feel very welcome and at ease, and we got to see turtles, my favorite! I appreciate all the care for the reef and our safety. Will definitely be back :)
Thank you so much! We’re so happy to hear you had such a great snorkeling adventure with Shawn. She’s wonderful at helping guests feel welcome, comfortable, and safe in the water.

We also really appreciate you noticing the care we put into protecting the reef and keeping everyone safe, that means a lot to us. Thank you again for joining us, and we’d love to have you back for another ocean adventure anytime!
