We booked a half day snorkeling trip for our family of four with Bamboo charters. Capt. Matt was completely focused on our safety and providing a 5-star experience for our trip, which was the best snorkeling outing we have ever had! Capt. Matt also has a degree in marine biology and is extremely knowledgeable about the ocean and environment, which was a huge bonus for us, we learned so much!

thank you for trusting me and Bamboo Charters with your vacation plans. It was great seeing your son’s interest in the reef life. And I’m so glad you got to see up close a couple of sharks and that Hawksbill turtle! The weather was a huge help with the calmsea and the beautiful visibility. Come on back and we’ll show you some other great reefs. We’ve got lots of small out-of-the-way places to go.

We had a great time! We did a variety of things - swam at the lighthouse, snorkeled in a different area, and enjoyed a more private and secluded sandbar. Captain Matthew was a joy to spend the day with and gave us the outing we had hoped for.

I’m so glad you and the family had a great adventure with me. As usual the real rock star of the day was Alligator Reef lighthouse and the weather. I look forward to seeing all again soon Thank you Capt Matthew Bellinger
