Prescription Goggles were available!!!
The tour was great, and as described. ~12 to the boat - mostly shaded. Three stops - one was at the reef, one was in a more sandy area with starfish, and stringrays, and one at a sandbar for some welcome rest and snacks. Time in the water snorkeling is only a part of the 4 hours, of course, but this is a trip for tourists, and beginners. I enjoyed it very much. Oh, and the availability of prescription goggles was a great bonus to my group!

Excellent Experience
Booked this trip here instead of going through the cruise line and I’m so happy I did. It was a fraction of the cost and triple the fun! Finding the meet point was extremely easy, at the port there’s a line for taxis. Just remember to bring cash. It was 15 USD for my family of 4. I just followed the direction. The group was my family of four, another family of 3, and a couple. Our guides were Captain Diego & Luis. Very funny and kind. The ceviche was fresh made and absolutely delicious. Yes they wanted to take pictures, but they absolutely did not press for the us to purchase as some people are saying. They did a wonderfully job, so much I also gave them my taxi money and my family and I just walked back to the port, wasn’t bad. Just a 20 min walk. Book this tour! I would definitely book this tour again.

Very nice snorkeling...
Very nice snorkeling tour. Boat picked up and dropped off at our hotel pier, very convenient!
The captain Pablo and tour guide Richardo were super nice. Richardo swam with us and took good care of everyone. We visited a free deep and shallow reefs, gorgeous!
The last stop at El Cielo was amazing - giant stingrays just like babies around you, their body touched people's legs - never had experience. Highly recommend this tour

Great time
Had a great time! Experience couple be upgraded with snorkels with valves on the ends to prevent water splashing in and mouthpieces on snorkels that have more than just a tab on each side to bite down on.

Excellent Snorkeling Adventure – Small Group, Big Experience!
If you’re looking for a snorkeling excursion that’s truly focused on quality snorkeling rather than just checking off tourist stops, this is the one to book. The small group size—only 12 people—made the experience feel personal, relaxed, and very safe. The guides were attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone was comfortable in the water.
One of the highlights was stopping at the stingray sandbar, where the crew prepared fresh ceviche, homemade guacamole, and fresh fruit for us while we enjoyed the beautiful surroundings. It was an unexpected touch that made the day even more special.
From start to finish, everything was well organized, professional, and exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for a high-quality snorkeling adventure with outstanding service and a small-group experience, I highly recommend this excursion. It was one of the highlights of our trip!

Great Adventure!!So much fun!
We had so much fun on this adventure. Our super friendly & very handsome guide, Laslo, was incredibly helpful & took us to the best areas to see fish, turtles, star fish, baby shark or two , sting rays in the clearest blue ocean. We had a great meal of fresh fruit & fresh Ceviche. I would highly recommend this excursion. Easy to find from our cruise ship & just an amazing day!
