Good time overall, with opportunity for improvement

4 Hour – Snorkeling Adventure9 adults1 child

Our family of 9 enjoyed having the boat to ourselves with 2 crew, versus a larger shared party boat. We were able to customize the itinerary to combine a 4 hour snorkel with a 2 hour sunset cruise, for a total of 6 hours. The good: drinks and snacks were plentiful. The music was upbeat. There was plenty of room for all of us. One of the crew was super friendly and interactive. The not as good: although final payment clearly stated that bank transfer was accepted, I received quite a bit of pressure to arrive with local cash currency; hard to do at that price point. The second “snorkel spot” was terrible, no fish and murky due to all of the boat activity in the area; it shouldn’t be marketed as a snorkeling stop. The BBQ prawns were amazing but the grilled marlin was not enjoyed by anyone; the texture and taste put us off. The toilet was fine for a small boat toilet, but there was no toilet paper. Finally, the sun did technically set during the cruise, but it was while we seemed to be rushing back to shore although we still had over an hour left on our 6 hour cruise when we docked back where we started. Overall, we did enjoy ourselves, but these items make me question the value.

    8 Hour – 3 Exotic North Islands8 adults

    Our journey in was choppy waters. One of our party of nine got sea sick. It happens. Saying hi to a pod of dolphins on the way in was a bonus. Gabriel/Flat Island is a beautiful aquarium you can swim in. Saw a huge variety of fish. BBQ was delicious. More snorkeling at Coin du mere and a much restful journey back.
