“My partner and I have very little snorkel experience, but both love sharks so we had to try this. Felipe and the rest of the crew are very well organized, professional, and informative. Before leaving the dock, we were each issued a wetsuit, fins, and life-jackets. We were also given space at the front of the boat to keep our belongings dry. The trek out to the dive spot was about 25 minutes or so, not too bad. Once we arrived they went over some key safety instructions for interacting with the sharks, various types we may encounter, safety hand signs etc — very useful. As they were going over…”
Swim through a sea cave to Marietas Islands Hidden Beach, snorkel with a small group, watch whales, and enjoy fresh shrimp ceviche.
“This tour went above and beyond. The hidden beach was an incredible! After Hidden Beach, we got to snorkel and go to another exclusive beach, only accessible by boat. On our way back we even saw whales! Lunch was delicious and even though we ran out of time for surfing because we were on a cruise ship and had to get back I’m sure that would’ve been incredible too. The whole experience was fantastic and I highly recommend it. My 13-year-old said it was one of his favorite days of his entire life.”
