Five stars isn’t enough

8 Hour – Icacos &/or Palomino (AM)4 adults

Hector and Orlando were beyond amazing. This was hands down the best excursion we did during our entire trip to Puerto Rico, and honestly one of the best days of my life. Hector was our captain, and from the very start he went above and beyond for us. When we booked, we mentioned that we had dietary restrictions and could only eat seafood and halal meat. Even before we arrived, Hector was in constant communication with us about food options and reassured us he would make sure we were taken care of. And he absolutely did — he took extra time out of his own day to find halal meat for us, which meant so much and did not go unnoticed. Two days before our excursion, Hector reached out to let us know that due to weather conditions, our original destination would need to be changed to a different island. We appreciated this so much. He was incredibly transparent, flexible, and kept us updated the entire time, which made us feel really comfortable and taken care of. Now for the actual day… oh my God. It was an absolute dream! We met Hector and Orlando, who were both so warm, welcoming, and genuinely such a pleasure to spend the day with. The ride was smooth, the island was unreal, and the entire experience felt effortless and perfectly planned. Orlando shared little historical facts about the nearby islands and places, which was such a fun touch. While we were in the water, he was constantly checking in and bringing us snacks and appetizers. And the food… THE FOOD. Some of the best food I’ve ever had in my life. Hector is truly a phenomenal chef. Honestly, the day could not have gone any better. Hector and Orlando, thank you so much for the memories. We will 100% be back to Puerto Rico, and whenever we do, we will ONLY be booking with Hector Barreto. No hesitation, no question.

    Amazing day on the water

    8 Hour – Icacos &/or Palomino (AM)6 adults

    We are a traveling with our two kids and their friends and were looking for a nice easygoing activity. We chartered the full day 8-hour trip, including visits to both Icacos and Palomino. We had a wonderful and memorable day of snorkeling, swimming, spending time on the boat and the beautiful beach. Captain Hector and the first mate Fernando were nice, helpful and knowledgeable. The food was plenty and delicious. The trip was perfect for us. Would highly recommend.

    10/10 charter in Puerto Rico!

    4 Hour – Icacos Island (PM)6 adults

    We had the best day with Captain Hector and Orlando. Hector provided us with all the information we needed ahead of the trip, was thoughtful and responsive to questions, and greeted us with a warm welcome. The whole trip was even better! They have everything you could need for an amazing day out on the water and are happy to work with you to make it exactly what you want. Kind, considerate, informative, and fun! We couldn’t have asked for more.

    Incredible Boat and Team

    4 Hour – Palomino Island (PM)5 adults

    Me and my friends came and didn’t think we would have a good time due to the weather but both the captain and lead deck hand were the best! They made my experience a birthday one of the best I’ve had. They had food, drinks and experiences ready for us. Attentive, kind, and respectful. We swam with sting rays and fishes. Overall, I would recommend them to everyone and anyone. I hope to use them again next year!

    Awesome Day

    8 Hour – Icacos &/or Palomino (AM)5 adults1 child

    Hector and Orlando are a dynamic duo. Hector cooked up the best food while adding his own personal touches. Orlando served and entertained us all day long. We went to the most amazing snorkeling spot and both were very knowledgeable about the area. We would definitely recommend any trips they offer, you will definitely be pleased.
