Sea Turtles, Smiles & Laughs with Danny, Jandi and other young men that just gradua, A Snorkeling Adventure to Remember! - Our family had an amazing time on this snorkeling trip! We got to see giant sea turtles up close they’d surface for air now and then, and it was such a beautiful sight. One of the instructors was incredibly patient and kind with our daughter, who was scared to get in the water at first. With his gentle encouragement, she built up the courage and ended up loving the experience! The crew was fantastic, friendly and enthusiastic. One crew member even dove down to take GoPro pictures for us, which made the memories even more special. After snorkeling, we were treated to warm noodles and Pop-Tarts surprisingly the perfect little post snorkel treat! We also got some great entertainment on the ride back. Two crew members put on a stand-up comedy show Danny had us all laughing, and Jandi made delicious soup and brought such a warm and welcoming energy to the trip. The only downside was that the boat was a bit crowded, which made it hard to fully focus on snorkeling. I got bumped into a few times and even kicked in the head by other swimmers. A little more space would have made it even better. Despite that, it was still a fantastic and unforgettable experience great for families and anyone wanting a fun and scenic ocean adventure!

Turtle canyon was great, oceanstar was fabulous - Oceanstar has their act together. Van pickup at the hotel was on time and accommodating. Even though they had a majority of Korean tourists, they also had English speaking staff. Turtle canyon was great. A lot of fish and a few sea turtles. Thank you oceanstar

Great Company - Everyone at Oceanstar was amazing to interact with. They are very nice and accommodating. I took a sunset turtle snorkeling tour. I would highly recommend taking a tour with this company. AJ was my specialized tour guide. He was outstanding. He made sure I was included and took the time to make sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. He was polite and extremely positive and energetic.

STOP YELLING AT TURTLE CANYON - I didn’t go on this boat, but I went with another to turtle canyon. ocean star ruined the experience. the snorkel guide was SCREAMING the ENTIRE time. he dragged his guests directly over our group, we all got kicked in the face by them and he was screaming in our ear. they got way too close to the turtles and were screaming right next to them nonstop, and the turtle was clearly distressed as he kept trying to frantically breathe without getting run over. our guide asked him to please be quiet and he pretended like he didn’t speak english, but the guides said this is a recurring problem and that every other boat hates this boat because of how disrespectful they are. they completely ruined what should be a peaceful experience. please tell your guides to stop being so disrespectful and ruining others experience. there is no need to be screaming at a peaceful snorkel spot.

Tour Operator is unreliable! - The tour operators changed both the tour time & meeting point arrangements at the last minute. We had to cancel through no fault of our own. We’ll be expecting a full refund from Viator.
