A small number tour that allows a personal touch. Plenty of time in water. Plenty to see. A real feeling that the operator wants you to have a good time

Lovely and personal. Ken and his two lovely ladies made this a wonderful experience for my husband and I. Extremely knowledgable with alll species. We were fortunate to see rays, turtles and dolphins and when snorkelling ‘Yin’ one of the ladies was in the water with us and able to give us info on fish we saw that were unfamiliar to us. Plenty of time, not rushed. Highly recommend this great team.
