Great beginner snorkel trip

Emily_M, Apr 2026

Kids review: Josh was very nice. He let me hold a lot of fish. He led to a lot of great places in the ocean. He helped my brother with his snorkel mask when he needed it. He knew a lot of fish. He was very, very, very nice. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇵🇷 Parents review: The whole team at Pirate Snorkel Shack was great. This was an introductory tour for those who have never snorkeled. It was very informative for our beginner children. It was an excellent way to safely introduce the basics of snorkeling. We saw some coral and beautiful bright fish. Our guide was there to not only help with equipment but to point out species of wildlife. Highly recommend for first time snorkelers and especially children.

Thank you so much for sharing this—this really means a lot to our team. We’re especially happy to hear Josh made such a positive impact and helped your kids feel comfortable in the water. It’s great that they were able to enjoy seeing fish up close, explore different spots, and get support whenever they needed it. That’s exactly the kind of first snorkeling experience in Puerto Rico we aim to provide for families. We’re also glad your introductory Fajardo snorkeling tour was a great fit and that you enjoyed the coral, bright fish, and learning about the marine life along the way. Thank you again for coming out with us—we’d love to welcome you back for another family adventure in the future.

Amazing Experience

NorthStar700171, Mar 2026

Our experience was absolutely perfect. I brought our two kids (12 and 15). Josh was our snorkeling leader and he was professional, friendly, and made us all really comfortable. Once he gave the lesson, Josh led us to two beautiful reefs, where he pointed out different kinds of fish, a variety of corals, and even an eel and barracuda (don’t worry, it was far away and we felt 100% comfortable). We all highly recommend this experience.

Beginner’s lesson top notch

tigerPrinceton, Feb 2026

We are a couple in our early 70s . We are experienced swimmers but had never snorkeled. Our teacher, Josh, clearly and patiently conveyed the basics to us. We couldn’t have asked for a nicer instructor. We were even able to see some coral, fish and even an octopus, despite the fact that the water was somewhat murky from recent rains.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. It truly means a lot to hear that you chose to try snorkeling for the first time with us. We love working with first-time snorkelers, and we’re especially happy to know that Josh made you feel comfortable and confident in the water. Patience and clear instruction are exactly what we strive for. Even with the slightly murky conditions after the rain, we’re glad you were still able to enjoy the reef and spot coral, fish, and even an octopus — that’s always a special sighting. We appreciate your kind words and hope this was just the beginning of many more snorkeling adventures for you both.
