Best part of my Costa Rica trip! - The sunset cruise and snorkel was the highlight of my trip! We were able to see angelfish, pufferfish, catfish and other fish while snorkeling. I loved that we got to see the sunset while on the boat. The food provided was good and the boat had a full bar with staffed bartenders which was great.

Great time! Awesome Animal Sightings - This was a great experience start to finish! The atmosphere was lively, service was attentive and fun, and I enjoyed bonding with the other people on the boat. On the way out to the island we saw jumping stingrays and dolphins swimming directly under the front of the boat. Snorkeling was accessible and fun - not really colorful coral, but tons of cool fish by the rocks. Highly recommend! Lunch was good and drinks were plentiful. I also had a delicious Mango Margarita at the meeting point bar, Alcon.

Super fun day on the water and snorkeling - The whole trip was really amazing. We toad out for about an hour and then snorkeled (or just swam around and hung out in the water) for an hour. We saw tones of cool underwater creature. The food was great too! It’s a party on the boat, which was super fun.

Lovely sunset cruise - What a fun adventure! Staff were excellent and so helpful. Boat was very clean. We went snorkelling and saw some interesting fish, an octopus and a porcupine fish. The sunset was beautiful and the water was a perfect temperature. Thanks! Adam and Erin, Ottawa, Canada

Great afternoon at sea - Sail and Snorkeling were amazing! Crew was very attentive, lunch was delicious and got to see lots of fish, a stingray, dolphins and a sea turtle. Upon leaving the dinghy from the catamaran to shore, we were the last group to board. Our transport to the hotel left without us and we were forced to pay $60 for a taxi to get back to our hotel. Very bad ending to an otherwise great night.

A fun and relaxing afternoon on the water - The catamaran was great, and the crew were helpful and competent. We were able to see dolphins and sting rays. The whole trip was fun and relaxing. The snorkeling itself was a bit underwhelming, turbid water and not a lot to see, but we were warned that February is not the best time for snorkeling so we had kept our hopes low.

Relaxing and fun day on the water - A great afternoon on the water. Great drinks and food! Staff was wonderful! The snorkeling wasn’t the best because the water wasn’t very clear. But we still stayed in and enjoyed the water for almost 2 hours!

Ran out of equipment - There wasn't enough snorkeling equipment. The fact that this tour literally has snorkel in its name, and that they know the amount of people that will be on the tour before heading out, I just can't see any valid reason for this. It's not the end of the world, but when traveling on a budget, every penny spent is carefully planned. Our group got to pick two tours to do during our Costa Rica Trip, and snorkeling was at the top of the activity list us. It was the entire reason for booking this tour. Waited in line to get our snorkeling equipment only to be told when we finally get the front that there is no more, and we and the people in line behind us could have pool noodles instead. If one of the main purposes of your tour is to take people to go snorkeling, you should have enough equipment on board for all passengers.
