Fun family snorkeling adventure - Amazing snorkeling tour of the arches with Alfonso, highly recommended to do with the family. Alfonso is a very knowledgeable guide - we felt very safe and saw many beautiful fish and enjoyed swimming through the caves.

Highly recommend! - We had such a fun time on this snorkeling and cliff jumping excursion! The small group size of only 9 people made it feel personal and relaxed. We started with a cliff jump — not everyone chose to do it, and the hike up the rock was a bit challenging, but the guides were super helpful in getting everyone up safely. Next, we snorkeled for about 15–20 minutes. We even swam under a cave and spotted some colorful fish, though the water wasn’t very clear that day. Afterward, the guides took us under one of the beautiful arcs for some great photos. The final stop was a secluded beach you can only reach by boat. The water was crystal clear, the sand was soft, and there was even a small fresh-water shower we swam under. The guides were friendly, provided water and beer, and made the whole experience easy and enjoyable.

Best Snorkeling Experience! - If you’re looking to snorkeling in Los Arcos go through Mismaloya Xtreme! They were very personable and made us feel comfortable. They had so much knowledge on the area and will go the extra mile to make your trip memorable. Thank you to Ivan, Bianca, and the captain for such a great experience!

Best part of the trip! - This snorkeling trip was awesome! My wife and I did the 10 AM excursion and it was more fun than we expected. Alfonso was extremely helpful and made the experience more convenient. Got to see the arches up close and my wife almost made me drowned, just kidding. Highly recommended!

Rock jump/ crowded snorkeling. - There were alot of other tour groups snorkeling at the same area at the same time. It was not cliff diving, it was rock jumping. They were very nice and informative about the area.
