Frequently Asked Questions

Is the morning or afternoon tour better?

The answer to this question depends on the other activities you have planned for the day. The optimal time for snorkeling is usually in the morning; however, it does require an early start at 5:30 AM to be ready for the tour pickup. Additionally, if you prefer not to start indulging in alcoholic beverages at 10:30 AM, you might miss out on the complimentary drinks. If you are new to snorkeling or unfamiliar with the ocean, it is advisable to opt for the morning session.
I don’t want to risk losing my camera, will someone be taking pictures?

Absolutely! Each cruise is accompanied by a talented professional photographer. If you wish to secure your photo package in advance, you can conveniently do so during the booking process. Alternatively, you can also purchase your desired package directly from the friendly photographer onboard on the day of your cruise.
Is snorkeling good for beginners?

Yes, snorkeling is beginner-friendly! We ensure this by providing all the necessary gear and guidance. Our crew members are always ready to assist and instruct you on how to use the snorkeling equipment. Also, we provide additional flotation devices for those who may not be confident swimmers. Rest assured, our top priority is your comfort and safety.
