“Great experience. They had a professional photographer on board who took pictures of people while on board. The pictures are available for purchase at the end of the excursion. We got close to the arch for better pictures. You have 2 chances to see it, once on the way out and once on the way back into the marina. The snorkel spot was protected from strong currents and had rock formations that plenty of fish were hanging around.”

Sitting at the front of the boat at sunset, and having the cold fruit platter and beers were definitely a highlight. Definitely recommend experiencing the lagoon this way. Muchas gracias!”
