Great time - Snorkeling was great and the staff was very safe and made sure no one struggled in the water. The lobster was a small up charge but well worth it. The boat ride was nice and relaxing and very fun on the way back. The coral took a hit from the previous hurricane but that doesnt stop you from seeing so many beautiful fish.

Great trip to see bule... - Great trip to see bule sea and sky. Lunch and bar are comfortable. We want to enjoy one more beach. Because return time to the port was earlier.

Anniversary destination at it best - Amazing anniversary destination. Many places hit my list but this stood out. Curtain bluff was the most value for the price. All water sports included and a French chef to boot. Don’t miss out great for family and retires alike.

Relaxing snorkeling trip - The Catamaran arrived on time to pick us up at Dickenson Bay. After collecting more guests on other decks we sailed versus Cade Reef with a great explanation by the staff members on the beaches and main historical spots we're navigating close by. The reef was not full of corals but there were fishes and we saw a small shark! The snorkeling part was good and safe, everyone was provided with a lifejacket, a guide driving us along the waves and also another small boat was available in case someone had not much energy to come back swimming to the Cat. The lunch and open bar was also great and we stopped in a couple of beaches that you can only reach by boat. Felt super exclusive! A special thanks to the Crew who really made our day with a fun and professional service. Recommended trip.

Don’t go for the snorkelling - Trip was average. Food was excellent and open bar always a hit. However the snorkelling session was not the best as overcrowded and lots of seaweed at surface making viewing difficult.

One of the crew members were very rude. - The crew gets smart with you in subtle ways. Rushed off the boat after being feed last to go to beach while they clean up. If u are the last person feed there should be a grace period for people to finish eating. One of the guys was real rude.
