Peter & Ekatarina rock! - This was a really great tour. Very comfortable small group tour lead by knowledgeable marine biologists made for an amazing experience. This was an along way from those where they just pile as many tourists as they can into a boat and ignore animal care and safety regulations. Our leaders had deep caring and understanding for the animals and the marine environment. Their enthusiasm and care made for a wonderful experience! Hats off to Ekatarina and Peter!! Would go out with them again in a heartbeat!

Huatulco Ocean Adventure - We were well looked after with Peter and Katerina. They knew where to take us to see turtles, dolphins, rays and even a whale. The snorkeling was amazing. I highly recommend this adventure.

Don’t look further. Book this one!! - What a great experience it was with Peter and Catherina! They’re extremely knowledgeable, well aware of where to look for animals and will guide you to a great time. We stopped counting at 40 dolphins today! Snorkels spots are remote with healthy corrals. We were looking for a tour that wasn’t a huge boat with a large crowd and what we got was even better than our expectations! 100% recommended.

Ocean Stewards - Our experience with Peter, Ekaterina, and Antonia was WONDERFUL. They are true stewards of the ocean and our time out on sea was both educational and very memorable. We loved snorlelling healthy reef ecosystems, a pod of dolphins, and many sea turtles. We also learned about the research Peter and his crew do, involving local universities to protect the Pacific.

Amazing sea life and snorkel - The crew and captain who guided our tour were so lovely and accomodating as well as knowledgeable about all the sea life we encountered. We shot out to deeper water to begin and saw many dolphins, turtles - even turtles mating!, a Wray jumped out of the water and we even saw a yellow bellied sea snake! The snorkelling was beautiful with healthy coral, an array of dazzling fish that the crew had an ID card for back on the boat. And the end the trip they took us for a boat tour around the bays and provided descriptions and explanations of the areas. Thanks guys!! Such a great day (:
