Customer Reviews
We went on two Ultimate Snorkeling Tours and both were excellent. The weather meant that for the first tour we had 3 stops closer in, each quite different and each excellent. On the second trip the sea was very calm so we had one short then one longer trip further out. Again both stops were excellent. We saw lots of colourful corals and plenty of fabulous fish, including schools of them. The staff were friendly, professional and helpful. The trip is great value for money as you see far more than the very good free off-the-beach snorkeling. Easy to recommend.
On a picture perfect morning we joined Kayla for a snorkel tour on our recent LHI stay. Kayla was incredibly helpful in accomodating my 92 year old mother who had a broken foot in and out of the boat and made sure mum was safe, comfortable and informed throughout the tour, even while the rest of us were off snorkelling. Kayla’s knowledge and natural love of the environment shone through. The following day Mum and I got chatting to a lovely local lady , Jill, who happened to be Kayla’s very proud grandmother. We could see where Kayla got her beautiful smile and great passion from.
Had a wonderful time today out on the Ultimate Snorkel with Kayla and Dean. We thankfully had amazing conditions and managed to see 4 spots! They made the experience so easy and fun. Snorkel and fins are included (and good quality ones too). Would definitely recommend, and the lady who works in the boat shed organising everything is also so friendly and knowledgeable. We’ve booked Mt Gower later in the week and can’t wait. Thank you all!
