So much fun! - This was the perfect snorkeling experience for us. We had read that the best time to snorkel was at high tide, so it was perfect that Curtis sets up the trip to coincide with high tide. The short boat ride to the island was very pretty. We were all mostly novice snorkelers, and Curtis was great! He took the time to make sure we were all set up and new how to use the equipment. We saw some beautiful fish, crabs and even a manatee swam by our boat. Would definitely recommend this experience, and Curtis, for your next snorkeling trip.

An unforgettable adventure with stunning marine life - We had an incredible time on our Peanut Island adventure with Curtis! The experience was unforgettable as we explored the beautiful waters of West Palm Beach. Curtis was an amazing guide, showing us the best spots to see the vibrant marine life. The variety of fish we encountered was stunning, and the crystal-clear waters made the entire experience even more magical. We couldn’t have asked for a better day out on the water. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy the natural beauty of Peanut Island!

MUST DO!! Do not miss out! - Curtis was amazing! Patient and very knowledgeable. My friend and I booked and were able to get from the town to the island quick. It was my first time snorkeling and I was not stressed or nervous. Curtis provided so much guidance I felt comfortable going into deep waters. I felt so comfortable in fact that I stayed at the island to free snorkel on my own. Thanks to Curtis my friend and I had an incredible day of fun while sightseeing the fish!

Snorkel/kayak tour of peanut island - Curtis is the BEST guide! He took 4 of us adults and our 6 month old baby on a snorkeling tour of peanut island. He took us out on his dingy and a kayak and showed us the coolest most colorful fish once we got to the snorkel spot. My husband and I had never snorkeled before but he taught us and was so kind and fun to talk to. Would recommend to anyone looking for a fun excursion and amazing snorkeling experience!

Reiterate was expected and communicate - Curtis and George was extremely welcoming and pleasant. Their other partner, not a people's
person at all. Nonetheless, the excursions should be reiterated thoroughly. We were under the impression our family would only be on boat, we were going to do all stated extravaganza yet we didn't even explore 1 due to timing and the amount of boats that were in the water. I had to rate 2 because we traveled to do this as a family and ended up doing nothing for the cost. I'm not asking for a refund because the team provided their boat, their gas and we still went out on the water but clarification and communication matters. It was advertised incorrectly. Revamp the page to avoid bad reviews and refund request. Thank you.

TRAVELER BEWARE - Took my wife, daughter and grandson for what we thought was a beach trip by boat, when we arrived to an area where you can see the beach we asked when we were going to the beach and they replied that this was a snorkel only trip. That was not advertise on the website, the website stated beach with paddle boats rentals etc. Have we known it was a snorkel only trip we would not have gone. I was told by the crew Curtis (nice guy) that he would get me full refund. After a few days we only received 40 % of our money back. Not fair, they should make their website clear for future travelers. Lost 110. dollars for nothing.

No fish in that location! - December 2024
I wish to add that the credit company credited my account since the boat company denied although it published and recommended snorkeling as seen on the photos. It was my sole purpose going there with my own snorkeling equipment.

Wasted Vacation Time!!!! - Not much for snorkeling but thought other options were available. Booked for other and selected a time which was confirmed. Time was moved based on snorkeling booked by other guests I was told and that Curtis wanted to have lunch during agreed meeting time. I was given option of two times to select. I choose 1pm to 3pm on the 26th of May. I was asked to push tour a third time which I could not do to other plans. I was called at 1pm while I was already by the fountain at Rafiki the restaurant and offered the option to cancel so I took it. I was told refund would be done somehow but not really sure how it worked. I submitted a refund via my bank based on conversation to later find out the refund was submitted by tour operator. Now I am facing a 25.00 charge for submitting dispute. All in all it the experience has been a major pain in my rear. I would not recommend booking with this tour unless you’re 100 percent snorkeling. To better serve the possible paying guests and respect their time Curtis should leave out other options at booking and state snorkeling only. What a great waste of time!!!
