    Great Trip!

    6 person- Icacos Island 4 hours • 5 adults • 1 child

    We went out at noon which was a great time for us because alot of the other we saw wanted to start at 8 or 9am and we were trying to be on vacation. We originally planned for Icacos Island but Carly advised us that with the water conditions it was probably too choppy for my 5 y.o.daughter and suggested we go to Palominos Island instead. We had a great time. He made burgers and had beverages for us on board. We got to bring our own alcoholic beverages as well. He had water floaties for us to relax on the water on as well. He doesn't speak a lot of English but he had his son translate the stuff about the water conditions to us and the rest we figured out. You'll be having so much fun, don't forget to reapply the sunscreen like I did. Everyone on the trip had a great time and we would recommend!

    Dream Day

    6 person Icacos Island 5 hours • 5 adults • 3 children

    Our private boat tour with Captain Carly was truly a dream day! We spent the day swimming in crystal-clear water, finding sea turtles, then somehow the day got even better when we came across a friendly dolphin swimming with a group of people. We actually got to pet it! Captain Carly was amazing and made the whole day so enjoyable. He had drinks, chips, and cheeseburgers for us, and everything was perfect from start to finish. The day was perfect! I can’t wait to do it again! Highly recommend Captain Carly for an unforgettable day on the water!

    Turtles, Floating, and a Relaxing Boat Day

    6 person Palomino Island 4 hours • 4 adults

    We had an incredible 4-hour boating excursion and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Seeing sea turtles up close was truly special, and floating near Palomino Island was the perfect way to relax and take in the beauty of the water. Captain Carlos was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and made everyone feel comfortable the entire time. He clearly knows the area well and was great at pointing things out while still keeping the trip easygoing and fun. The boat was comfortable, the pace was perfect, and nothing felt rushed. This was one of the highlights of our time here, and I’d absolutely recommend this excursion—especially with Captain Carlos. We would 100% do it again!

    Excellent customers, I'm so glad you had a great time. I hope to see you again soon. Thank you for choosing us.

    An Unforgettable Family Adventure!

    6 person- Icacos Island 4 hours • 5 adults • 3 children

    Our trip to Palominos with First Mate Ian and Capt. Carlos was the highlight of our vacation! Traveling as a family of five with three kids (including one with special needs) can be a challenge, but this father-son duo was incredibly patient, kind, and helpful. They even encouraged our kids to try snorkeling for the first time—a memory we’ll cherish forever. Highlights: • Personalized Care: They were amazing with the kids and made everyone feel safe and included. • Great Food: The lunch prepared by the Captain was fresh and delicious. • Easy Planning: Communication prior to the trip was super responsive and professional. If you want an stress-free, memorable day on the water, with genuine people, beautiful whote sand beach that is semi-private book with Ian and Carlos. We will definitely be back!

    Wonderful experience

    6 Person - Palomino Island 5 Hours • 6 adults • 2 children

    This boat trip exceeded all our expectations! The captain was incredibly accommodating and made the entire experience unforgettable. He took us to a beautiful spot where we got to see sea turtles, then brought us to shore so the kids could swim and enjoy floating on an inflatable raft. He even went above and beyond by bringing a fishing pole for my son and spending time fishing with him while we snorkeled. Throughout the day, he captured great photos for us, which was such a thoughtful touch. Absolutely worth every penny—highly recommend!
