Paddle boarding and snorkeling are the best ways to get on and in the water. You will never get closer to nature. So close you can reach out and touch everything. Put them together with a little time hanging out on an island sipping cold drinks and munching on some fresh fruit and you will have one of the best days of your life. This is the perfect activity for beginners or experienced snorkelers and paddlers. You don't even need to know how to swim. If you are feeling nervous while snorkeling just stand up. The crystal clear waters around the island are only about waist to chest deep. Plus we'll be there right by your side to teach and make sure you are safe and comfortable while in the water. Of course the best part of snorkeling around the island is all the fish and wildlife you can see. Since the island is so close to a direct ocean inlet you can and will see many of the fish here that you would see out on the reef.
Out at sunset: the 3:00 PM departure is under way when the sun sets, around 5:30 PM in the coming weeks.
From the operator’s live schedule on Viator, checked Nov 12.
After kayaking, you will board our boat and set out to Sandspur Island aka Raccoon Island. The guide will teach about nature and search for wildlife on the way there. Once we arrive, you'll get the chance to explore, snorkel and meet some furry friends.
