Great time in the water! - Great day in the water, even with high winds and choppy waters the crew did a great job in getting us some decent time snorkeling and enjoying each stop. The crew on board was the high point, they were extremely friendly, helpful and careful with everyone. Quick comment to improve would be the communication before the tour, that was not great with slow responses on questions. But overall we had a great time!

Amazing half a day on the water! - Amazing tour! This was our second time sailing with this captain, him and his crew did a fantastic job. We saw a reef shark, turtle and sting ray jumping. We did not snorkel due to high waves but just being on the water was worth it. Thank you.

Great tour with an excellent crew! - Great tour! The crew, the boat, and the beaches are all fantastic. The choppy water made the snorkeling a little difficult especially for my 8 and 10 yr old boys, but they still had a blast.

A relaxing day away from the resort - Captain Tony and his crew were top notch guides as they took us to various spots in and around Grace Bay. We probably had 20 or so other guests on the catamaran that we picked up along the way. Children, teens and older adults. First stop was snorkeling which, admittedly, was a bit difficult because the water was choppy in the afternoon. Many people recommend the morning trip because it would be calmer. That said, the stop at Iguana Island was fun. We were told it was $20 per person but they never charged us. And the last stop was a private beach so the kids and adults could hang out in the sun and water. Plenty of rum punch and local beers along the way. The sandwiches they provided weren't bad either. All in all a great experience.

Good activity, friendly and helpful operator - We enjoyed this relaxing tour on a catamaran with the crew. They were very polite, helpful and made us feel welcome. They assisted everyone with snorkeling gear and gave good directions.
In the water, we felt they were focused on our group's experience and safety. Visibility was OK that day and we saw several types of fish and a reef shark.
There was a short stop to see native iguanas but it wasn't too in depth. Some beach time there and a simple lunch on the way back with drinks. A relaxing trip that was interesting and a good value.

Disappointed - As we waited at 1 pm for our pick up, multiple other families from our hotel were picked up for a similar tour by a different company while we continued to wait. I finally called the company 30" past our scheduled and confirmed pickup time and was advised the tour had been cancelled via email and text because of weather. They had sent an email at 11:30 that morning but I never received a text. I likely would have seen a text in time to book seats on the tour the other families from our hotel joined. However, while on vacation I am not continually checking my emails. In hindsight, I should have booked our tour through the hotel and not through Viator and we wouldn't have been left standing disappointed on the beach on our last day of vacation.
