This was probably our favorite activity on our trip to PR! The speed boat ride was definitely bumpy, but that is to be expected on the ocean. These boats are not yachts, so do not expect a super smooth ride. This was a great adventure. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, & helpful. You will be fine with no boating experience.... More

We had the best time! I think the highlight was going to Palominos Island, I grew up on the Gulf and never felt sand like that. The water is beautiful, the speed boat was bumppy but you're in the elements so it's to be expected. Before the trip our guide instructed us how to handle the rough water and make... More

This tour would have been fun if the weather had not been so bad. We were thrown about in the boat on the way out to the island fighting the perfect storm. I am writing this the day after the excursion with several bruises and a sore body. The snorkeling sights were nice but it was raining and the water... More

This was one of the best things we did in Puerto Rico ! The team is gracious and friendly and our tour guides were very good. This is for anyone who likes a little bit adventure. Kids ? Am not sure as the boat ride is bumpy. All in all we had a blast and I will recommend it to... More

My girlfriends and I rented two boats. The guides were really informative and gave us snacks to feed the fish so that we were surrounded by tropical fish! The boating was rough but fun, and the islands were beautiful!

This snorkeling experience was a great time. My only issue was the zodiac bounced around a lot even with boyfriend, who is an experienced captain, driving. However the waves are very common for this side of the island. The snorkeling off Icacos was great and the second stop at Palominitos was absolutely breathtaking. It was honestly one of the most...

We had a party of 4 and we got bounced around alot. Boat is small but fun. Just rough open water. Snorkling was OK water was not that clear due to wind. But it was a fun time. Little island they bring you to is funny. Only 1 tree, but there is nothing to do there. One kid swam on... More

This excursion is fun, but definitely high-thrill - not for everyone. The sign-up process was smooth, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Nico did a great job of teaching everyone how to drive the boats; that said, I'm glad that I didn't have to drive! I think it's harder than it looks, but my husband loved it. Our... More

Very fun day trip to some small islands and snorkeling. The boats can be hard to drive at times and waters are very choppy. Other than that, we had a great experience and would love to do it again. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The free food and drinks on the boat were a very thoughtful gesture.

I retracted a bad review earlier because the company contacted me and offered to refund our expenses, which I thought was good customer service. However, I still think some things need to be posted here simply so others considering using this company are aware ahead of time what to watch out for. They take you to the good snorkeling spot...
