What To Expect

During this tour of the best Snorkel site in North America you will encounter a plethora of normally unseen marine animals while exploring different habitats like vast arrays of artificial reefs and grassy/sandy ocean bottom. This is a guided activity, so throughout your time in the water I will point out, identify and talk about all the marine animals we will see as we swim together over the reef trail located less than 50 yards off the shoreline! The tour typically will last a two hour period and is designed for beginners and novices, but still beyond exciting enough for seasoned snorkelers. After the tour fresh water showers will be available to rinse the salt water off as well as provided towels to dry off.

Under the bridge around the playground area is where we'll meet and greet to discuss the general plan for the day, snorkeling safety precautions, as well as prepping and fitting gear. This tour is all inclusive as we provide all the snorkel equipment, sunscreen, and post snorkel towels/snacks/drinks to enjoy after the swim.

****If anyone would like to have the experience documented, photos/videos of the activity can be requested so please inquire BEFORE the tour starts.
