Spent 4-5 hours on a super nice and clean catamaran. We snorkelled, enjoyed the view and relaxed in the shallow water drinking beer. Lunch was a regular ham and cheese or tomato and ham or tuna sandwich. Nothing fancy. Got back to the hotel around 2pm which is great because you can still get more beach time afterwards!

Great afternoon adventure! We chose the adult only trip and had such a fab time first time I tried snorkelling which terrified me but I did it and saw a big turtle! Drinks flow steadily and a snack of sandwich and crisps sees you through. Staff are friendly and fun and the views are beautiful! There is family friendly which... More

We had a great time. One of the persons on the boat became ill, maybe a low blood sugar thing, anyway we had to turn back shortly after starting our 4 hour tour. They was very attentive to that person and got back to the dock quickly. After she was taken care of we restarted our 4 hour tour over.... More

We booked this trip while holidaying in Mexico. (booked through Thomsons rep @ hotel). We were booked on the afternoon trip. (approx 4hrs) Our mini bus got us there in plenty of time so we had a chance to explore the beautiful harbour. You get to see the dolphins, sea-lions and manatees. We were then helped onboard the catamaran. Not... More

Went out last week on a clear but very windy day. Rough seas - several people were sick. Snorkeling just ok - strong current to fight, guide didn't point out anything, second half was looking for a turtle, but just snorkeled over sand and bleached out coral. Only got to swim in the calm lagoon for 15 minutes. Owner was... More

This is a great 4 hour adventure. The crew is absolutely first rate and considering the snorkeling, food and copious amounts of beer, etc it's a very good value. The Cat is spotless which adds to the enjoyment.

This experience was everything we were hoping for! We were a group of over 20 people and everyone had such a blast! We started with an hour ride out to a reef where we snorkeled for a half hour. Lunch was served after that and we then sailed to a natural pool in the sea. After that, we headed back... More

this was our 3rd time with Fatcat on 27 Feb 2013. Everything from the hotel pick up to getting back to the hotel was very well organised. The crew are so friendly and ensure you are never without a drink and there was plenty of room on the boat. some of the others we passed, people were crammed on. There... More

We booked a private charter with 4 other families for a Fat Cat Catamaran tour yesterday and had a wonderful time! The office and onboard staff was completely awesome - helping my children around the boat, providing wonderful refreshments, and and overall amazing time!

Warmly welcomed by Arlene and Anthony before being shown to the beautifully maintained catamaran. The crew briefed us on what we could expect during our day and they didn't disappoint! A great party atmosphere, fishing for barracuda, snorkelling and a stunning sunset to finish on - we loved every minute of it!
