Romantic and magical - Magical experience! Fun, romantic, peaceful. Good food & tropical beverages, music, snorkeling, and of course a picturesque sunset. The rainbow was a beautiful surprise. Definitely recommend it. We took the Playa Coco cruise which included a short shuttle trip add-on from our hotel 15 minutes north in Playa Hermosa.

Great day, delicious lunch on board! - The entire crew was so friendly and helpful. Lunch was delicious! There were 49 people on our boat and there was still plenty of room. It did not feel crowded at all. Definitely recommend!

Best Catamaran Experience! - The catamaran tour was awesome! The boat and crew were great! The food and drinks were delicious. I recommend this tour to anyone going on a boat cruise! The owner even went above and beyond and helped me with a lost item I left on the boat. A++++

Relaxing Excursion - Absolutely loved this excursion! I would do it again on my next trip. The staff works hard to make sure you have a great time. The lunch was delicious and great drinks with open bar. The boat played fun tropical music. We had such a gorgeous sunset too. You won’t see much snorkeling but just getting in the water on a noodle was very relaxing. Highly recommend!!

Fun afternoon in the sun - Has such a fun time, this was my first “booze cruise” as my husband called it. Made some good friends for the day, lots of laughter and encouragement. Crew was super hospitable and everything was enjoyable. The weather started out overcast then cleared up and we had a nice afternoon in the ocean. Would highly recommend!

Good time even in rainy season - Enjoyable experience. Only 4 due to the weather and the sea was way to rough and cloudy for snorkeling. However, the team was great and made for a fun adventure

Sunset catamaran cruise - We enjoyed the boat ride and views. Good lunch and sunset on the way back. Did not see much snorkeling so would recommend, bur for more of a sunset boat cruise than snorkeling trip. Staff was great, good cocktails

Booze cruise in disguise - My partner and I did not enjoy this activity. It was raining, lightning, and thunder and we (personally) did not go snorkeling. Many of the kids did, but it was too cold for me. The good: the food was delicious and the staff were very kind. They made an effort and took care to go over the safety rules. The bad: It is a booze cruise with loud music, rowdy kids, and was entirely way too full (72 people out of 75 max) which was surprising because it’s off season. Overall, it was pretty miserable and we couldn’t wait to get back to shore.
