Guest stories
Travelers from around the world, one shared feeling
“A fantastic snorkeling experience with Jonathan and Captain Ishmael of Openwater Expeditions. Jonathan was an excellent and knowledgeable guide about the area as well as the sea life. He never rushed us and kept trying to find more fish and sea creatures during the snorkeling. After about an hour in the water, we had lunch and cocktails before heading back to shore. Highly recommend!”
“We were taken to a secluded cove where there were no other boats so had the place to ourselves. The guide made sure we were in a place where we saw lots of fish. It was like swimming in an aquarium.”
“Jonathan, Ishmael and Simone were great hosts!! small group of 8, very relaxed couple hour boat ride with amazing views of whales! well worth the price!! One of the highlights of our trip!!”
