Description
We take you to some of the most exclusive snorkeling spots on the island including remote black sand beaches! Our captains choose the best snorkeling spot each and every trip to make sure you'll experience the absolute best our ocean has to offer.
While you enjoy island fruits, juices, fresh muffins & sweet rolls on this 3.5-hour snorkel trip, our crew will teach you about the fascinating marine life you'll encounter at our snorkel site.
Then, another crewmember will explain the use of the snorkel gear, while we custom fit the masks, snorkels & fins to ensure the gear will work perfectly for you in the water (snorkel gear included).
But what makes this sail different from any other is that we'll actually join you in the water to help with final gear adjustments, making sure you are safe and comfortable. And we'll even give you a guided tour of the reef!
Enjoy fluffy towels, a delicious deli-style lunch & an open bar. Build your own sandwich & add a Caesar salad, pasta salad & chocolate chip cookies for a filling lunch. After lunch, we invite you to steer the boat as we cruise back to the bay.

This tour was awesome and the instructors were great. We had never snorkeled before and they made sure we knew what to do and were comfortable before letting us get in the water, they had plenty of flotation devices to accomodate every swimmers level. The food was really good too. The only thing was we did not go to the black sand beach, they have to choose the snorkeling site based on weather conditions, so it is possible you won't be at the black sand beach.

We had a GREAT time. We had Spinner Dolphins swimming with us for a while which was a treat. I, however, was stupid and didn't put sunscreen on and I'm paying the price now for that error. Great trip though and the food was good also.

This was a most excellent adventure. They took us out on a catamaran, and we snorkeled at our leisure. They showed us the various sea creatures up close. We even saw a reef shark. We would do this again in a heartbeat!

Fabulous adventure. Loved every minute of it. The boat was smooth but fast. The crew was professional and friendly. The food was great and they didn't cram the boat full of passengers. And we saw incredible whales and had a great time snorkeling. They even had prescription snorkel gear! We recommend it to everyone. It was the highlight of our trip! Thanks!
