Wonderful experience - Mike is a very knowledgeable, down to earth guide, super nice dude. The area on the beach we swim to the reefs from was a brief and enjoyable walk from the meeting spot, lots of restaurants and shops on the way so if you’re hungry after the dive plenty of choices to choose from. The dive was spectacular, tons of different fish species, a lobster, spiny urchin and even swam along side a nurse shark. 10/10 would recommend.

Great Snorkeling Guide - Mike is a fantastic snorkeling guide. He took the time to give careful instruction for a beginner like myself and the trip was great. We saw some interesting fish and a nurse shark. Mike is knowledgeable about the fish species and gives good instruction throughout the trip.

Just go for it. So worth it! - Awesome experience! We were completely new to snorkeling and Mike made us feel comfortable and was so knowledgeable. I was a little scared but he put me at ease about everything. I would highly recommend booking a snorkel with Mike if you are looking for something more private and laid back!

Great snorkeling experience with Mike - It was a great fun experience, I highly recommend. Mike did a great job explaining everything, and he was there for us all the time, he’s friendly and professional. He had all supplies so we didn’t need to worry about anything, I recommend you take the photo with him too, he knows what he’s doing, and it’s easier for him to handle it, especially if it’s your first time. It’s a must try experience.

Snorkel with Mike - A Tremendous experience that feels like your getting in on the local knowledge - 5 Star Review from ~30 y/o couple visiting FL, first time snorkeling: Mike was an awesome instructor that had his tips and tricks down to a science. I am not the best swimmer, but Mike had a pre-snorkel briefing filled with tips to really have a safe and great experience. I went with Snorkel with Mike because I felt like getting a snorkel tour from a local guy in the area would be less pressure and not a big deal vs an overcrowded big boat tour that was a little less personal. I mean that in the best way, because it felt super casual yet professional- perfect for me and my partner and exactly what we wanted. 10/10 experience. We were nervous at first, but after we were thinking - "we can't wait to do it again." Mike has a ton of knowledge, and pointed out the different species of fish and different reef features along the way. Afterwards, Mike sent us a few photos after that we're really glad we have. (there's no way around it- you WILL look like a goober with a snorkel mask on) All in all, Tremendous experience. We trusted Mike to take us to see some cool stuff and not drown, and he delivered without a hiccup! I would hire him again with no question- and I hope I can. Thanks Mike!

Perfect snorkeling experience! - Snorkeling with Mike was a great time and a must-do experience if you are visiting the area. He explained the process thoroughly, from equipment use to what we encountered while in the water. He also gave us great commentary about the area and things to do on the short walk to and from the meeting area and the beach.

Great experience !! - Very passionate ! Knowledgeable! Calls you in advance , to keep you updated on the weather! I was lucky the weather was great , some rain. But not horrible. The visibility was amazing! It took me 2 minutes to figure out the breathing through the mouth with the snorkel. But , once you get use to it. Snorkeling was a breeeze.

Amazing Snorkeling Tour with Sea Turtles! - We had a fantastic time on our guided snorkeling tour with Mike! There were five of us, all adults, and Mike made sure everyone was comfortable and had a great experience. The highlight of the tour was definitely spotting a beautiful sea turtle up close – it was an unforgettable moment! Mike was knowledgeable, friendly, and ensured we all felt safe and informed throughout the trip. The waters were crystal clear, and the marine life we saw was incredible. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a fun and memorable snorkeling adventure!
