Fun times and a better deal!
To be clear, we wanted to rank it 4.75 out of 5!
This trio was very attentive and kind. There was 14 of us on a catamaran together and this was much better than the larger groups! We were able to see lots of fish and enjoy the boat ride. The snack of ceviche, guacamole, and fruit was superb! Oliver even danced with our group - we thoroughly enjoyed the day. All around, highly recommend.
Operator response

5 ⭐️
Our captain, Fernando, was amazing! He made sure we all stayed together as a group once in the water. I felt like we had a good amount of time at each of our 3 stops. The food that was served was simple but delicious! We saw so much sea life!!

Cielito
The meeting location that I was sent was incorrect. My reservation said meet at the Marina. The boat actually picked up at The Money Bar. We had to pay for another boat to take us to meet up with the tour. Also we did not go to El Cielo, we went to El Cielito.Other than that the crew and the trip was great.

Best tour we had
Really good tour, in comparison of other that we have done during our trip. Small group and super well managed. You feel that they gives you attention even if there is a lot of people. The Colombian reef is just incredible, we have seen sharks, turtles, lobsters and a variety of fish. The second steep in the clear water with the stars and the Ray it’s super cool for people who have apprehension of the deep. Because the sand it’s only at few meters. And the final destination, is incredible, one of the best beach I’ve seen in my life. Lots of ray, and the skipper have made an amazing ceviche. Thanks for everything ( just be careful, sun screen are not available, even the eco friendly one. So be careful, he have been burn because of the sun )

Enjoyed the trip with a great crew
Overall we all enjoyed the trip very much (6 of us including 2 children).
Pros:
- Very friendly and helpful crew
- One crew member hand made Salsa, Guacamole. and ceviche for everyone. Very good
- Location is visited by a lot of boats but it is still a very nice reef
- Not with the huge groups from the cruise ship. More personal
- Great margaritas
Cons:
- Tripadvisor has the wrong time, so we were 45 minutes early
- Catamaran is on old sailboat converted to power. Typical Mexican junky boat
- $40 with tip cab ride from downtown cruise port
