Johan and Junior were great guides. Loved all the history and stories about the island and surrounding areas that were given while we headed to the different spots. The snorkeling was amazing, the beaches beautiful and lunch was SO DELICIOUS! Honestly, this was a highlight for us (this and Lucky Stables for horseback riding!) 10/10 recommend. You will love this excursion

Snorkeling St Maarten

Lori_H, May 2024

We had the best day with Captain Junior, Jahan and Sha Sha! They were entertaining, helpful and provided us with one of our favorite days on the island. Lunch at Loki’s was delicious! I would highly recommend this experience and this crew!

Highly recommend full day snorkeling and beach excursion

Krista_T, May 2024

We enjoyed a wonderful day on the water with Nicholas and Snyder. They were wonderful tour guides! It was fun to travel to multiple locations around the island to snorkel and hang out on several different beautiful St. Maarten beaches. Lunch at a local restaurant was delicious as well.

Worth it!

Kristi_M, Mar 2024

Great time!

LeAndra_L, Mar 2024

The Captain (Junior) and Co Captain (Erwin) were AMAZING. They were very welcoming and made everyone feel like a blended family. The were great communicators and inform us every stop on the excursion. The stops on the trip were great! The music selection was great and Junior gave a lot of fun facts about the island. The chicken option was by the best ever. Would highly recommend Junior as your captain!

You won’t regret this excursion!

Eric_M, Mar 2024

Amazing Tour Guides

Katlyn_Z, Mar 2024

Our guides, Nico & Snyder were AMAZING! They went above and beyond to make sure each passenger was having a great experience & safe on the boat. Creole rock was super cool! The boat had nice ice cold drink options. There were 4 lunch options at check in - Chicken, Ribs, Fish, or Veggie option. 25/10 experience - Definitely book here!

Good time had by all

Steven_B, Feb 2024

Had a great time with boat captain Miguel. Saw some colorful fish. Food was great. Added bonus was pod of dolphins swimming next to boat on the way to snorkeling site.

Perfect way to see the island

Patricia_B, Jan 2024

Our Captain Miguel and First mate Maya did. Wonderful job attending to us and keeping us entertained. Miguel passed on much history and showed us so many beautiful beaches. I highly recommend this tour. Oh and lunch was fantastic!

Absolutely a great day and experience with wonderful hosts!

James_T, Jan 2024

It really was a GREAT day and event! Kudos to Sammy and Mathias as they led the day. We stopped at great places that were as beautiful as can be and they were excellent hosts. Sammy gives great knowledge of the area and the local culture. Mathias can get a little carried away with the booze, but he's just trying to keep folks happy. Both were more than helpful and fun throughout the day. The place can be a little difficult to find but just pay close attention to the directions.

Great experience

Anthony_S, Jan 2024

The trip took us around the entire island with spectacular views. Each spot we stopped had something new to see or experience. An overall great day on the water!

Great time

Jonathan_G, Nov 2023

Brilliant experience. Sammy and Frankie were so much fun. Beautiful beaches to stop and snorkel or just swim. Delicious lunch. Highly recommend this trip.

Great for snorkeling...

Sarah_B, Oct 2023

Great for snorkeling lovers. Loved the ride on the powerboat. Food was delicious also! Visiting Pinel Island was a nice experience. The water on each island was pristine, gorgeous, absolutely beautiful even when it rains

Awesome snorkeling!

Amanda_C, Oct 2023

Excellent trip! Sammy was fantastic! Highly recommended! Great for families! Great snorkeling- will definitely go again!

Great Experience, Definitely Recommend!

Amy_N, Oct 2023

Amazing day!! Highly recommend this snorkeling experience. Snorkeling spots were great (although we only saw one turtle and that was from the boat before we got in the water lol). Life vests and pool noodles were available for those who weren't strong swimmers which my husband appreciated. Captains were fantastic and drinks were plentiful. Lunch was good and appropriate for a tour - not the best food you'll eat on the island, but definitely quality. Bring LOTS of sunscreen and make sure to focus on your back and your feet since your back will be exposed to the sun most of the day :). Would do this tour again and highly recommend!

Best day to her on Saint Martin!

Hawaeventsii, Aug 2023

I spent 3 weeks on Saint Martin in June. This 3 Island speed boat tour was absolutely the best excursion we had. Nick and B were awesome tour guides! They were extremely friendly and took interest in each person on their tour. The snorkeling was awesome and the different islands were unique. I was with my daughter and grandson and we all thought it was the most fun we had on the islands. It was so much fun that after my daughter and grandson left, I booked another tour and went by myself. So much fun! I highly recommend everybody do this if they’re on Saint Martin ! Thank you, Nick and B for your hospitality!
