Even if it’s your first time swimming in open water, we guarantee an enjoyable experience and turtle sightings. Feel free to ask your guide about anything you see—our trained professional will be with you every step of the way.
Throughout the tour, your guide will take high-quality photos of your experience, which will be provided to you at the end.
