Description

Put on your wetsuit, mask, and fins, then start your snorkeling adventure. Suitable for beginners and experienced swimmers alike, you can join solo or bring friends and family.

Your guide will provide a safety briefing, explain how to use the gear properly, and describe the marine life you can expect to see in the Atlantic Ocean.

Once equipped, the group enters the water from the shore, beginning in the shallow, protected bay of Playa Chica. When comfortable, the tour continues along the reefs outside the bay. You will float on the surface, following the fish and spotting various marine creatures with the guide’s help.

The wetsuit keeps you warm for snorkeling even in cooler months and assists buoyancy on the surface. After the session, enjoy a break with cookies and a sea view while chatting with the guide and your group.
