Party of Six

As it turned out our party of 6 were the only people on the sailboat making it feel like a private reservation. The time spent was ample, the captain and crew were great, the food served by the on deck chef was very good and the drinks were plentiful. I would absolutely recommend this activity for anyone wanting a more intimate experience on the water.

The highlight of my vacation!

I participated in the morning tropical sailing excursion. Captain Roger, Dillon, and Jurick demonstrated exceptional attentiveness, ensuring the safety and enjoyment of all participants. The snorkeling experience was remarkable, offering an abundance of marine life within the reef. Despite a noticeable current due to today's strong winds, the crew diligently monitored everyone's well-being. Dillon prepared an excellent meal, and the beverages were superb! I particularly appreciated the intimate group size, consisting of seven guests and three crew members. I departed having formed new acquaintances. This experience was undoubtedly the highlight of my trip, and I eagerly anticipate a return visit.

Awesome snorkeling and sailing

Great trip. Friendly crew with Roger Jason and Daryll. Snorkeling was exciting. We saw lots of fish in the reef. Eating lunch on the boat was fun and the food was good. We also enjoyed sailing to and from our snorkeling area.
