    Cruise

    Our 38-foot boat runs twin 300 horsepower engines, so we're out at the reef while the big boats are still loading.

  3. A green sea turtle swimming over seagrass beside a coral reef
    03

    Snorkel

    We stop at more than one reef, and your guide swims with you to point out the sea life.

  4. Cups of Caribbean punch and a fruit platter on deck at golden hour
    04

    Unwind

    Cold Caribbean punch, snacks, and an easy ride back with the sun on your face.

Small on purpose

Ten seats. That's the whole boat.

Big tour boats pack in 30 or more people. We stop at ten, so everyone gets a real spot on the reef and a guide who knows their name.
