A customer may make a request for a pick up from somewhere else depending on the location if we can, we will oblige. Please be advised that the cruise ship may occasionally arrive at an alternative dock, Spotts Bay, due to adverse weather conditions that prevent tendering at the George Town dock.

Nice and effective

It is a good tour and the tour guides are friendly. They also had the tour planned veey well. The snorkling location was really nice with plenty of colorful fish. The Starfish and Stingray locations were also amazing. Overall very good guides and courteous and knowledgeable.

The excursion runs longer...

The excursion runs longer than advertised and impacts time in port if you care to shop or eat lunch. The stingrays are impressive, the starfish could have been strategically placed at island- long boat ride to see 5 starfish. The snorkeling was fine. Overall it was good, but you will only spend 20m at each location. Rest of your day is spent on a boat or a bus.

Snorkel, Stingray, and Starfish!

This was one the best excursions we’ve booked though Viator. Jordan, Alex, and Diana were great hosts! Dropped my phone in the ocean and Jordan and Alex immediately went in to look for it. We found it!

The boat sucked. We were soaked before we got to the first stop.. Not all of us wanted to swim since water wasso rough.They crammed too many people in the boat. Not a comfortable ride.. I have used this company before, we were on a catamaran..

Great experience!

Great experience. Crew was very knowledgeable and explained all about stingrays. My kids thoroughly enjoyed although they were a little short to stand on the sand bar, they had to ride on our backs. Overall, great day!
