Each snorkeler will get a deep understanding of this local ecosystem, such as the behaviors and anatomy of all the diverse life that will be encountered during the tour, all because of the passion we have for sharing and preserving this natural wonder.

5.00I took the tour with my 11 and 14 year old kids, with no snorkeling experience. 10 out of 10! Westin was an amazing guide! We took time to figure out how to use the equipment and get used to the water. Westin kept us safe and entertained! We were able to see many sea creatures, including turtles. Great guide and great tour, definitely recommend.
Great fun.

5.00Westin was an incredible guide! He made sure we were all safe & comfortable with everything from gear to path traveled. Appreciate that he provided all necessary gear. He did an excellent job of giving everyone an opportunity to see all of the beautiful marine life. The reef itself is convenient to shore & parking. We saw the most beautiful sea turtle, swam in a gigantic school of fish, had an encounter with a sting ray, huge hermit crab, cool frog fish and beautiful fish local to the area. 10/10 highly recommend if you’ve never snorkeled in the area or new to snorkeling in general. Fantastic host with great knowledge of the area. Westin clearly has a passion for preserving local ecosystems & traditions. Couldn’t be more grateful he shared this adventure with us!
BEST snorkel experience!

5.00Westin was absolutely amazing! My niece and I had such a great time! I highly recommend the 08:30am time slot. Yes, it’s rather early, but the water was very calm and clear! So much to see!

5.00The best way to spend my birthday. I saw such a variety of sea life and two sea turtles within minutes of being in the water. Westin was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He made sure that everyone was well informed, prepared and comfortable. This was the best guided tour I’ve been on in Florida. Thank you for the amazing day out!

5.00This snorkel tour exceeded expectations. Westin clearly loves the water and the animals and his enthusiasm shined through the entire trip. He took great care to make sure everyone saw the creatures that were hiding and shared so many interesting facts about everything we saw. He was born to do this!! We would definitely do this again.
