First time Snorkeling = Amazing! - We had an incredible first-time snorkeling with Myrka! We had zero experience, and my mom was having anxiety before getting in the water but ended up absolutely loving it! We all loved it and would definitely recommend to anyone. Myrka was a great leader and explained everything in detail and looked for cool things to show us! This was one of our favorite days in PR! We saw a seahorse, 2 turtles and some gorgeous fish! Thanks for such a great experience!

Snorkeling in the heart of San Juan - I had a terrific tour of the marine park with Scuba Dogs! They were knowledgable about local marine life, accommodated a late party, and allowed more experienced swimmers latitude to explore away from the group. The water wasn't very clear due to the wind and tide, but the swim was a relaxing oasis conveniently located in San Juan. Would definitely recommend to visitors who don't have a car to get to other parts of the island.

Sea 🐢 turtle escape❤️ - Josh was our guide and when I say he was amazing it’s an understatement. My one purpose was to see sea turtles but I got to see soo much more. We were blessed with seeing a school of fish and other wonderful sea creatures. I don’t really know how to swim but Josh was very patient and let me use a floater to complete our wonderful snorkeling adventure. A must do!!!!!

Fit us in last minute - We originally had booked a tour with champion snorkel tours who canceled on us. We didn’t receive a notification so were surprised when there was no one to meet us. We got a cab to go back to the hotel and our taxi driver recommended we try scuba dogs. They accommodated us and took us out right away. Samuel was our guide and was just wonderful. We were so grateful we got to go.

Great tour! - Doesn’t look like much from the outside, and the equipment needs an upgrade but they know where to put their effort! The guide was very knowledgeable, he looked out for our group— all levels of swimmers effortlessly— the fish were amazing and we had a fantastic time!

Wonderful snorkeling experience! - Great trip! Our instructor took us to a great selection of snorkeling location where we saw lots of fish-he identified them on the spot and told us interesting facts about them. We also saw a hawksbill turtle feeding on sea grass. Next time we will do a longer trip! Scuba Dogs is a great team!!

Nice people but terrible tour - Sadly this was one of the worst snorkeling tours we have taken. The team was friendly but highly disorganized. We arrived for a 9 am tour (beach start) and did not hit water until after 10. Excessive waiting then truly excessive explaining then almost no fish at ALL (reef is destroyed) but there were turtles which was nice.
