so much fun! - I had an absolutely amazing time on this tour! The staff were delightful—so welcoming, warm, and fun. I really appreciated how careful and professional they were while supervising my 7-year-old son, which made me feel very safe and at ease. The snorkeling was incredible, and being able to feed the fish made it even more memorable. Lunch was delicious with very generous portions, plus we enjoyed unlimited drinks and even a snack. Overall, it was nonstop entertainment, a fantastic value, and an experience I would highly recommend to anyone!

Great for families. Super fun and beautiful snorkeling trip. - Loved everything about it. Ramon (our captain) was amazing!!! He was fun, informative, friendly, great with kids and made the entire trip more enjoyable. The crew were all excellent too. Alexa, the marine biologist, taught us about coral and what the company is doing to preserve and restore coral reefs in the area. Our drive was quick, safe and cool. We had seaweed, but that happens now in May-October. Highly recommended!

Great for kids and families - Food was delicious and the staff was very knowledgeable about reef conservation. They put special attention towards the kids which we wanted for our daughter. They even made a bed for a baby that was traveling with another group which we thought was super sweet. Fun party atmosphere and great for kids. Slide was a huge bonus. Would highly recommend.

Reviews are spot on. Amazing) - I would highly recommend this excursion for anyone! They provide all the gear, the staff is amazing, and the food is excellent. We actually met a family that was doing the Excursion for the second time. They said they will do the excursion every time they’re in the Dominican. I think that says a lot! My kids had a blast with the staff and they were so attentive with them. My five-year-old went snorkeling for the first time and one of the guides stayed with him the whole time with a raft and lifejacket while we got to also snorkel as well. I wish this excursion was longer!

Family-Oriented Snorkeling Adventure - My family goes snorkeling on every single vacation, but it is rare that we get the boat to ourselves. Seven passengers and five crew members. Before we got on the boat, they showed us how they were working to conserve the ocean by creating new coral reefs. Simply impressive just to keep marine biologists on staff. Snorkeling they showed us some amazing marine life, including a stingray and provided five star service and surf and turf lunch. Definitely recommend this adventure with Hispaniola Aquatic Adventures.

Great for families. Food was so good! I had the seafood meal. Drinks were flowing. - Great first time experience for my 9 year old. The tour guide was great with helping her conquer her fear of snorkeling! My 3 year old didn’t enjoy it so much but she’s only 3.
