Description

Sail in a catamaran to a coral reef teeming with tropical fish and other marine species, where you may snorkel, swim or simply remain onboard and enjoy the scenery. The catamaran is exceptionally comfortable as it features both a spacious open deck and a shaded area, if you would prefer to relax under cover. Once underway, the crew will distribute your snorkeling gear and elaborate on how to maximize your experience. The exact snorkeling destination will depend on the prevailing water conditions, but regardless of where the catamaran stops, you can expect to see an abundance of marine life. The waters here are teeming with schools of angelfish, colorful parrotfish, Nassau groupers up to four feet long and Queen conch, an icon in the Bahamas. You might even spot playful bottlenose dolphins and sea turtles. All species of sea turtles in the Bahamas are protected and each year their numbers increase.
