Private, hands‑on instruction
Tours are private and led by a dive pro who begins with a shoreline briefing and one‑on‑one time in waist‑deep water so each participant masters basic snorkel skills before entering the open ocean.
One hour snorkeling in the ocean
After initial instruction, your guide leads a focused, one‑hour snorkeling session in the ocean to show the area's aquatic life and fish.
Comfortable start and included transport
The outing features a gentle, waist‑deep introduction (about 3 ft) to build confidence and includes transportation from select hotels for a smoother door‑to‑water experience.
