Great trip, with one big question

4 Hr – Palomino Islands Tour8 adults

The boat and captain were fantastic. The weather was perfect, the location was beautiful, but we were confused that we reserved a snorkel trip for 8 people and there was only equipment on board for 4. At the end of the day, we shared the equipment it worked out, but this seems like a completely avoidable oversight…

Response from Captain

Hi Adam, Thank you so much for your kind words about the trip, the captain, and the overall experience—we truly appreciate you choosing AquaVida Charters and are very happy to hear you enjoyed the day on the water. We sincerely apologize for the confusion regarding the snorkeling equipment. Our goal is always to provide a seamless and fully prepared experience, and we understand how this situation may have caused concern. While we’re glad to hear it was ultimately resolved onboard, this is something that should have been better coordinated on our end. Your feedback is extremely valuable, and we are already taking steps to ensure our equipment counts are double-checked prior to departure to prevent situations like this in the future. Warm regards, AquaVida Charters Team

    Bachelorette Heaven!

    7 Hr – Icacos & Palomino Islands • 8 adults

    We came to San Juan to celebrate our friend’s upcoming wedding! Alberto was an amazing captain! He took care of us and everything we needed/wanted from the moment we arrived at the marina! This company has truly thought of everything and is so well organized and prepared for groups such as ours. From prior to booking, leading up to the trip, and day of they answered every question I had. They let us control all of our own music, bring additional refreshments, and made sure we had plenty of photo ops for our bride to be! 10/10 would recommend if you’re wanting a true boat day celebration!

    Response from Captain

    Thank you so much, Jenny, for this amazing review! 💙 We’re so happy AquaVida could be part of such a special celebration for your bride-to-be! 🥂🌊 It means so much to hear that you felt taken care of from the booking process all the way through your day on the water. We’ll also make sure Captain Alberto sees your kind words! Thank you for trusting AquaVida Charters with such a memorable occasion. We hope to have you all back on board again—maybe for an anniversary trip next time! 😉☀️

    Great Day on the Water!

    7 Hr – Icacos & Palomino Islands • 8 adults • 4 children

    We were two families (8 people) and did the whole-day charter with Captain Miguel! Everything was well organized, with clear instructions. Captain Miguel was the best! He had all the drinks and snacks ready. He prepared an amazing BBQ lunch on the boat. The snorkeling was good, with lots of colorful fish; we saw turtles and a dolphin. The boat was clean and comfortable with lots of seating. Kids loved the huge float to play on. Thank you for a great day on the water!

    Definitely a must do when in Puerto Rico!

    7 Hr – Icacos & Palomino Islands • 8 adults

    Our captain Alberto was AMAZING. He was very pleasant, accommodating, and extremely knowledgeable. He gave great recommendations that did not disappoint. We spotted Sea Turtles during our excursion, and he got us to the best spots at both Icacos and at Palomino. We had plenty to drink, eat, and the atmosphere was perfect . We will definitely use Aquavida and Alberto in future excursions to the Island..

    Response from Captain

    Thank you so much, Priscilla! 💙 We’re so happy you had an amazing time with Captain Alberto and enjoyed both Icacos & Palomino. It was a pleasure having you onboard, and we can’t wait to welcome you back to Puerto Rico for another AquaVida adventure! ☀️🌊

    Alberto is the BEST!

    7 Hr – Icacos & Palomino Islands • 9 adults

    We had the best day with Captain Alberto! The boat was plenty big enough for 9 passengers + captain, plus space for belongings, snacks, and beverages. Alberto brought us directly to swim with turtles and have a quiet spot to relax all day. Would recommend to everyone!
