I wish we had done this trip on day one so I had time to go again. The list of marine life we saw up clise is too long to name! The coral was incredible. The sea turtle was a pleasant surprise. Shark Ally was once in a lifetime experience. And our crew, loved each one of them! The way we were made into guided groups really enhanced the experience and education about what we were seeing. Simply a must do!

The excursion was transferred to another company due to not fulfilling the minimum occupants requirement (which was fine) HOWEVER, we were told that it was the same price and when we went to the new company we were told the price was actually only $105/pp not $150/pp and when reaching back out to the original company to get the price difference refunded we are now not getting responses back. We were still charged the full $300. We would def recommend the other company.
Great day sailing & snorkeling!

Our guide Edwin was very informative and funny. He made sure to show us the seahorses and tarpon feeding in Caye Caulker and he also recommended restaurants for lunch. He was very accommodating on the boat and he also gave us info on places in San Pedro. Most importantly, he made sure to keep us safe in the waters and pointed out all the wonderful creatures there.

Fun trip
jason_h, Aug 2022
Very fun day. We left from Blue tang Inn. Went snorkeling at the local reef which was fun, got to swim with some sharks at another location, stopped at Caye Caulker for lunch and then back again. The guides were a lot of fun and made the trip interesting. Beautiful water and overall a fun trip. Would definitely recommend.

It’s a slow breezy sail mistakenly called a snorkeling trip
Vikram, Aug 2021
This isn’t really a snorkeling trip. It’s a long sail from San Pedro to Caye Caulker with two 30 min stops thrown in for snorkeling. Mind you, I’m not complaining as the slow sail on the sailboat is what I was looking for - but those looking for a day out snorkeling will be in for a big disappointment. It’s blink- and you’re back on the boat!
Response from Host, Dec 2021
We are sorry to hear you did not enjoy the length of the sail trip. We also offer a half day snorkel with the 2 snorkel stops. Guests choosing the full day to Caye Caulker also enjoy the time spent eating and shopping on Caye Caulker.
A Full Day of Fun & Adventure Snorkeling Tour
Lawrence_B, July 2021
Victor took the time to point out so many different variations of coral. And made sure we saw all the interesting fish that we came across during the guided snorkel tour. Both David and Victor were excellent hosts during the whole tour. We had a great time!
Response from Host, Dec 2021
We are thrilled to hear you loved your fun day of adventure and snorkeling on the Sirena Azul Sailboat! There is so much to see on the reef, we glad you got the experience. Glad the guides were great hosts and you enjoyed it.
Sailing the reef is the only way to go!
Becky_B, July 2021
If I could give a 10 star review I would!! Our group of 4 had the best time! Victor and David did a wonderful job... Victor made sure we learned about the coral and the fish we were seeing below us. He pointed out certain creatures that were hard to see. When it came time to feed the sharks, they made sure we were able to swim with them before we ran out of shark food. The sailboat ride was so relaxing and enjoyable. We we returned from Caye Caulker, we had a quick storm roll in and these guys were quick to get the sails under control and keep us safe! I would take this sailboat ride again over taking the other catamaran or boats available. Thank you for such a wonderful and memorable day!
Response from Host, Dec 2021
We are happy to hear you loved the sailing experience on the Sirena Azul Sailboat. It's always a favorite tour for the owners of Blue Tang Inn as well. We are glad that Victor made your experience more memorable by pointing out the things you may have missed without him to guide you. Our guides are experience and professional. We hope you visit again soon.

Amazing experience
Christopher_H, June 2021
This experience was amazing. The crew was so friendly and helpful and attentive. The snorkeling was full of sights and close to the coast. The side trip to Caye Caulker was wonderful. My wife and I took our two daughters, 5 and 9, and they had a great time as well. Really can’t say enough about this experience and how it was just perfect in every way. A day we will always remember.
Response from Host, Dec 2021
