Awesome snorkeling experience

Published on Dec, 2024

Had a blast snorkeling around the beach. Emilio showed us how to snorkel properly and also took us around to the best spots!

Emilio is great!

Published on Dec, 2024

Emilio was a super attentive and patient driver and snorkeling guide. Had a great time at the beach and going through the waters. Three thumbs up!

Emilio was an amazing tour guide!

Published on Dec, 2024

Emilio gave such a fantastic tour and was so sweet! He was so accommodating and flexible with our group’s requests and spread of experience levels. Definitely a core experience in the water and couldn’t recommend him more!!

Warm water, fish right by the shore, the best guide!

Published on Dec, 2024

Emilio was so sweet! We were the only ones on the tour in the morning and Emilio was very accommodating and flexible. Took us to breakfast because we had not eaten yet. He went out into the water with us and showed us all the best spots/cute critters even diving down to get various creatures (eg: sea urchins) for us to hold! Beginner friendly, as he taught some folks in our party how to snorkel, but also went very far out with those who were more experienced. Been snorkeling all over the world and what was so unique about this location was the abundance of fish so close to the shore. You step one foot in and there’s fish swimming in between your toes! Not too crowded of a beach and very clean.

Great Snorkeling Trip for any Experience Level

Published on Dec, 2024

The pickup from our hotel was smooth and easy to navigate, it was a short trip to Santa Maria Beach where we got to swim with so many fish! Then we drove over to Chileno Bay for more snorkeling and also saw so many fish! The view in both areas was beautiful and Marco and Luis did a great job explaining everything to us to the experience was fun and easy!
