A perfect evening! - This exceeded expectations! The boat was immaculate and the crew were very nice. I was amazed at how well we saw the bioluminescence given we went on a full moon. Our snorkeling was roughly an hour after sunset. I can’t imagine going at the 5:00 like some boats - I suspect it wouldn’t it wouldn’t have been dark enough. For the price difference I would do a private boat for 5 people again. The smaller group meant less time getting people into and out of the water, so more time snorkeling! We had been warned to wear rash guard shirts bc of jellyfish and irritating algae? We didn’t have any problems on exposed body parts

Good adventure - Very different adventure- few places in the world can offer this! Tour guide was on time, informative, and friendly. Plan on cool temps both in the water and when you get out since the sun has set. Fun!

Great tour in Grand Cayman - Great experience with Cody and James. We had a great cruise and seeing the bio was definitely something that needs to be on your list. The boat was very clean and crew very professional and informational. Great trip for families. While the pictures are a little blurry, seeing it in person was awesome.

Great end to the trip and amazing experience! - We were a little early and they were there. Dion was our captain, did a great job. We were a little nervous heading out in the dark to the unknown. A little scary getting in but it was amazing! Great end to our trip. For a group of six the private boat was perfect!

Great custom experience. - This experience exceeded expectations. We met Captain James, who was punctual in his arrival. The boat was clean and had beverages and a nice sound system. We thought we were just going to the bioluminescence tour, but we had actually booked a 3 hour tour. We had already experienced a few of the places on the tour, so James pivoted to a custom tour of spots he thought we'd like. We went to a small beach restaurant for drinks and some beach soccer, we went to a private island for sunset, and then headed over to bioluminescence bay, which was incredible. They did a great job of making pivoting for us and making in an awesome experience. Highly recommend.
