Local’s Pick for Guided Snorkle Tours - Carlos, Freddie and Victor took care of every single detail needed for our family to have the best time. We are locals and have done trips with multiple companies and this one is THE BEST. Carlos and Freddie each took a group of us to snorkel. Freddie was our guide and he gave us clear instructions on what to do and expect. We saw stingrays and turtles!!!! So many! Kind of want to gatekeep this information but they deserve the recognition.

Everything We Hoped and More - My wife and I were first time snorkelers, and she's not the strongest swimmer, so we were a tad nervous going in. The friendly manner of Captain Luis, Victor, Freddy, and Juan put us at ease, and the snorkeling experience itself was wonderful, one of the coolest things we've ever done. We both felt incredibly comfortable in the water and there were plenty of flotation options available for all levels of swimming ability. The guides were careful to make sure that everyone got a chance to see the wildlife, including several sea turtles and sting rays. All in all, a great experience and we cannot praise the crew highly enough for their professionalism.

Core memories made! - We had the most perfect day on the water with Captain Luis, Freddy, and Noel. They are experts at their jobs, professional from beginning to end. My daughters (ages 8 and 9) were the youngest on the boat and they ensured they were comfortable and happy the entire trip. My girls absolutely loved the boat rides, the snorkeling, paddle boarding, eating lunch, jumping off the boat---all of it. I have done many snorkeling tours before where you go off on your own, never with a guide like Freddy and Noel, but they led us to the best spots and helped point out everything we could hope to see (multiple sea turtles, sting rays, crabs, tons of fish). I cannot give enough stars to this experience. It was the highlight of our trip to Puerto Rico! Thank you Pure Adventure for the core memories made!

Private beach on Vieques island - I went with my friends, they took us to a private beach on the coast of Vieques island, beautiful and quiet. The scenery is spectacular there’s conches all around the beach from the sand to the water. We got to see turtles and sting rays as well as the coral reefs. The crew was very kind, they’re very attentive and will make sure you get the whole experience.

Great experience - This was a great experience. Very professional, organized and well run excursion. Everything ran smoothly and made it so enjoyable. We saw multiple sea turtles, sting rays and beautiful fish. All the gear was super clean and fit well. Definitely recommend. We used this same company for the bio bay which was also great. Pure Adventure was much better than a some of the other companies we used during our time in Puerto Rico.

Such a wonderful experience - Our family booked the snorkeling tour to Vieques . We had a wonderful time , this tour was both a mixture of relaxation and wonder. We enjoyed the ride to the island and the time we had to swim on the beach and learning to use the equipment . We had time to take pictures and explore . For the second part we snorkeled and got to see many fish , a sea turtle and a few sting rays . The tour guides were safe , pleasant and attentive to our needs whether it was with food , drinks or help with equipment . We had Juan, Victor and another tour guide . They made a great team and we would definitely book with them again! Thank you!

Amazing snorkeling experience - My family had an amazing day out! The crew made sure we were always safe, comfortable, and happy. Upon checking in we wrote down on a list what kind of wrap we wanted for lunch, so it was ready for us after our first stop. I was happy that they offered gluten free options. I got the gluten free chicken salad wrap, but due to it being gluten free it was just chicken salad sans wrap. That was totaly fine by me! It was delicious, and lunch came with fruit and plantain chips. They offer fresh water and other drinks like soda, and once you are completely done with snorkeling they offer alcoholic beverages for safety. They offered plenty of snacks as well after we were all done swimming, and they let you jump off the boat before you head back to the dock! All equipment was clean and in good shape; they offer life jackets, paddle boards, and other flotation devices. My family is only fluent in English and I speak just enough Spanish to get by, but we had a guide explain everything to us in English. Due to most of the people on the excursion with us that day speaking mostly Spanish, we branched off from the rest of the group with our own guide (plus the other family that mainly spoke english) while the rest of the group was able to follow another guide. This was super smart, as we weren't all in one massive huddle of people trying to snorkel together. The crew were all kind and friendly, and I truly appreciated all they did for us. Someone on our boat couldn't swim or wasn't a very strong swimmer, and our guide was able to pull her along on a flotation device so she could still enjoy with us! You will also be given instructions on how to use your snorkel masks/how to snorkel if it's your first time. It was clear our safety and enjoyment was their top priority. Our guide made sure we all got to see turtles, stingrays, conch shells, octopus, and so many cool fish. The only thing I wish we were able to have on board was a bathroom, however there are bathrooms, changing stalls, and outdoor showers back at the office where you check in. I suggest making sure you use the restroom before you get on the boat, especially since they serve plenty of drinks. An amazing day out all in all!
