About this experience

Designed from the ground up for families: a ten-minute run to a sheltered reef in eight feet of water, flotation vests for everyone, and guides whose entire job is getting nervous first-timers comfortable with their face in the water. Viewing boards for the kids who are not ready to swim yet, a slide off the stern, full shade and a hot lunch aboard.

  • Eight-foot reef, no current, ten minutes from the dock
  • Flotation vests and viewing boards for every child
  • Guides trained for first-time and nervous snorkellers
  • Water slide off the stern between snorkel sessions
  • Full shade deck and a hot lunch aboard
