Remember, we're guests in their home. Always respect marine life and their habitats. We do our part to recover any lost items and remove any marine debris we find. Drop a snorkel? Let our crew know and we'll retrieve it. Spot some garbage? We'll make sure to pull it out of the ocean and properly dispose of it. These are some of the things we recovered from the reef this week! #MarineConservation #SnorkelingSafety

Highly recommend this activity" #HappyCustomers #LivingOceanTours

Don't just take our word for it, hear from our satisfied customers! Randi writes "We were scheduled for Sunday, Aug 25th, but Trop storm Hone was excepted to arrive on Sunday. I switched my time to Saturday. We showed up and the Captain told us that the currents would be rougher and the ride out would be rockier and if we weren't comfortable in the water we could cancel or reschedule. My wife and I are strong swimmers and experienced snorkelers so we decided to go. I'm so glad we did. The water was crystal clear, we saw so many turtles and fish. All of the crew( Female Strong) were amazing. They gave super clear instructions as well. we had so much time on the water. Much more than I thought. The area was not that crowded either. There were plenty of snacks( granola bars, mini oreos, cheezits, etc) and beverages. Water and soda and some juice. Such a fun trip." #HappyCustomers #LivingOceanTours
