Sea turtles, colorful fish, and clear waters -- oh my! - We had a great time on this excursion. It's an intimate experience with only 8-10 other people -- much better than the options available through the cruise ships. Our captain and crew were experienced, fun, and professional. The highlight of the trip was snorkeling with big sea turtles. We also saw lots of colorful fish at the snorkeling locations. The crew even made us sandwiches for lunch (that were surprisingly tasty) and there was plenty of cold beer and water/soda in the coolers. The only downside was the water was very rough/choppy as we were heading to/from the snorkeling locations and beach. This was a relatively calm day but we were still bounced around a lot on the boat. The captain did a nice job of navigating the waves to reduce the impact. We would go back again.

Great time! - Great time. Captain Cisco and Adam did a great job! We did 3 stops, saw sea turtles up close, beautiful fish around a reef, and a wonderful relaxing time in the water by Yellow Beach on Pinel Island. Would definitely recommend.

Nice snorkel trip. - 4 hour trip to Titamar, but also reefs on SM and Pinell. Ctuse actually went for nearly 5 hours, ample drinks and food. CPT. Cisco and Adam knew great alternate spots, got beautiful reef, saw angle fish, sting rays, dozens of reef fish, fan, finger and brain coral. Attention to safety and knowledge of the area. Well worth the price, will go again on longer trip.

The highlight of our vacation! - Our family of 4 had the best time on this snorkeling trip. Captain Marcus was awesome. He was knowledgeable, entertaining, and was a great host. We did the 4 hr trip and lunch and drinks were provided and plentiful. When snorkeling, we saw turtles, stingray and coral reefs. Marcus also took us to see the iguanas on Pinel, and we had so much fun floating with all of the fish there. Highly recommend. Thank you Marcus for making our week!

Great crew to calm the initial rough waters. - We signed up for the 4 hr snorkeling trip. There were three in our party; my wife and I and our grandson. There were 7 other people on the boat with us, not counting the Captain and First Mate. Captain Alan was not the person who took us out, but rather his two sons, Miles and Jersen (sp) were our hosts for the trip. They were awesome! So many times, when we have gone on excursions before, the guides/hosts just seemed like they were going through the motions of providing a service. Not so with Miles and Jersen. These two were naturals. They were very engaging with everyone on the boat. They appeared to genuinely enjoy what they were doing and to be with us on the boat. Miles told us that our trip out might be a little rough and it was, but nothing that made anything dangerous. He handled the boat like a true captain would; powering up when he needed to, and backing off when it was needed. The boat that we were on was more than up to the task to handle the water we were in. It appeared to be relatively new, and it was extremely clean. Miles also prepared lunch. The sandwiches prepared were really good, in spite of them being “simple”. Bottled water, beer and soda was available and Miles and Jersen were always checking to see if anyone needed anything to drink. While Miles was responsible for the navigation of the boat, Jersen was the first mate and “entertainment director”. He was definitely a lot of fun to have on board during the traveling between the 3 islands we visited. About the actual islands visited, we had our own snorkeling equipment, so I can’t speak on the equipment provided, but I can say that time provided at each location was more than adequate for everyone to get their head’s underwater and to view the local sea life, i,e: all sorts of colorful fish, sea turtles, rays, urchins, starfish……..Safety overwatch was always provided by Miles and Jersen. Jersen even accompanied a group of swimmers to an area that they said might be a little tricky to snorkel because of the currents. I think by the time we were headed back to the marina, everyone on the boat felt that the time in the water was adequate. All swimmers were back in the boat before our allotted time in those locations was up and I don’t believe anyone had to be called in by either Miles or Jersen. There is no doubt that my wife, grandson and I would book again with Captain Alan’s. It was a very enjoyable excursion. .

Ten out of ten! - Captain Omar and First Mate Cisco gave us a day to remember for a lifetime! Thank you for the good food, safe adventures and visits to some of the most gorgeous places on earth. We even saw an octopus while snorkeling! Ten out of ten, would do again!

Don’t miss out on this fun! - Just got home from a solo trip and this was the first excursion I did and I had a BLAST. Captain Marcus was very informative, witty, kind, helpful and made the trip one I will never forget. Not to mention he was an expert at navigating the choppy seas & made it feel like a roller coaster! We did in fact see turtles among other sea life. 10/10 would HIGHLY recommend this boat adventure.

Great Tour with Awesome Team - Great trip! Our captain was Sisco (with his adorable dog Kiera) and first mate Frankie. They both made it so fun. The stops were excellent, I especially loved all the fish at Creole Rock. I only wish we had more time at Islet Pinel, the final stop as I would have liked more time to shop and relax on the beach. Overall, excellent trip that I would do again on my next visit.

Everything was great, especially Cisco and Jerson!! - We had a blast. We did the 6 hour tour and it was a fantastic day! We snorkeled several different stops! (4 total) We relaxed on beaches as soft as butter! We shopped on another island! The water was perfect temperature! We saw sea turtles and beautiful reefs filled with sea life! The boat was well stocked and in good order! Our Co-Captains Cisco and Jerson were fabulous! Cisco took great care of the boat while Jerson took great care of us! They were super helpful getting us older folks on and off the boat as well as helping the younger ones with their first snorkeling trip. At first we felt pampered and entertained, but by the end of the day these young men felt like Family! The food and drinks were excellent too!! This family operated charter is the best!
