If you are new a new snorkeler this is the ideal choice! Particularly good for families with younger children or swimmers who aren't certain if they are "seaworthy" enough for one of our longer trips.
This trip is slower-paced and affords guests time to become more familiar and comfortable with the exciting and beautiful sport of snorkeling. Our crew will be happy to help you adjust your mask, fins, and snorkel and help you become comfortable viewing the tropical fish while using a flotation assistance device we call a "noodle". You'll even watch for dolphins and whales along the way!
We offer several different times slots to fit your schedule. The times shown indicate the check in time. Tour duration includes time to checkin and receive gear. Snorkel participants must be comfortable swimming.
Looking for more snorkel time? We also offer a Deluxe Snorkel Tour that includes snorkeling at two different reefs. Check out our other listings for more details.
