Amazing private charter experience - We booked a private charter for our family and had an absolutely amazing experience! Shasta was our guide and she was incredibly informative, making the entire trip both fun and educational. She and Derek were so patient with us and gave us great tips and recommendations for things to do locally. We snorkeled in several beautiful spots and felt completely taken care of the whole time. Whether you’re considering a private charter or one of their daily snorkel trips, you really can’t go wrong with them!

Highly recommend Magic Merman’s snorkeling excursion. - Wife and I very much enjoyed the morning snorkeling excursion. The crew was wonderful, my wife got a little seasick and they were very kind and helpful. Choose Merman’s because of the small boat which is very comfortable and easy to get in and out of. Also, not a party barge ( we brought a few cocktails ) so no wild passengers. Made two stops and saw turtles, sharks ( gentle), and many different fish. Another highlight was a large pod of spinner dolphins which put on a wonderful show. Great drinks, snacks, and lunch all served by a very attentive crew. We would highly recommend Magic Merman’s snorkeling excursion.

Absolutely phenomenal - I went with my wife for our 1st anniversary.
It was smooth sailing from the start, Derek checked us in and got us prepped to go to the boat.
Our boat was operated by Shasta and Mikaya. They took great care of us, and we even saw whales on the way! They gave us a lot of information about the marine life and even some food recommendations.
The snorkeling itself was amazing, and Shasta guided us through the reefs with ease. It was my 2nd time snorkeling and this tour helped me grow my confidence in the ocean.

What an awesome and personalized snorkel trip! - We were a small group so the crew was very attentive and we were also able to snorkel at 2 locations. The food was delicious, especially the banana bread! Shasta and Miciah, our naturalist and boat captain, were very informative and made us feel comfortable!

Amazing Snorkeling Excursion! - This was the best snorkeling excursion my wife and I have ever been on. We are mid 40’s and have been on a ton.
The crew of Derek, Casey and Shasta were fantastic. They were very descriptive on what we were able to see. They took us snorkeling to two great locations.
We were able to see Humpback Wales, sea Turtles, two different types of Dolphins, eels and a variety of fish.
I would absolutely do this again and recommend anyone who loves to snorkel to use this crew.
A+

Snorkeling trip with the bonus of whale watching - Wonderful snorkeling trip. Best part was seeing several whales breaching up close (within legal limits). Guides were very courteous, helpful and informative. The lunch and snacks were also good. Would recommend to anyone.
