The island was beautiful - the people are very nice there and we had fun.

What a beautiful island!!! The kids enjoyed the snorkeling, and us too! Loads of lovely colourful fish to see! The beach totally idyllic. Plenty to eat and drink, and hammocks in the welcoming shade to relax in once you can tear yourself away from the beach!

This is very relaxing. It's great if you want to see a lovely beach and take it easy for the day!

This was a nice day. The food was great. The water is so clear. The island is deserted and gorgeous. A bit more shade would have been nice. The price was very reasonable. Our group of seven people had a great time!

We had fun even though it was windy and cloudy, although we expected more fish to see while snorkeling.

The trip started off with a nice boat ride where we got to see a bit more of Nassau that we wouldn't have seen otherwise. The island was fantastic!! I would definitely do it again!

Not as good as Exuma powerboat, but there was live music on the boat. There were not enough snorkeling fins for everyone and the lunch could have been better. The free drinks of lemonade and white wine were ok but free water would have been better. The snorkeling at the island was just ok because the reefs were dead with few fish. But for the price it is a nice cruise with a good band on the boat and the hammocks were nice.

It was good for my children, 14 and 11, because this was their first time and they didn't know what to expect. I was disappointed that no instructions were given and people were not instructed not to walk all over the coral reef. I was very sadden to see all of the dead coral. I wish there were more flotation devices so that we could have ventured off shore a little more and seen more of a variety of creatures. The boat ride was longer than advertised. The island was beautiful and the views during lunch were amazing I just expected more from the snorkeling. The music on the boat and on the island was very relaxing. The picture taking was a nice touch but the cost to buy one picture was unfair. I didn't have an extra 40 in my pocket to buy the package and probably would not even if I did. A couple of pictures would have been nice maybe 2 for 10. Overall we had a nice time but probably would not do it again.

The boat ride was nice but the music was too loud. We would have enjoyed a quiet, scenic boat ride with a bit of commentary on the scenery. The island isn't really what it's billed as and the beach leaves a lot to be desired. They give you snorkel equipment to use but I'm not sure why because no one I saw or talked to saw a single fish while snorkeling. There's really nothing to look at. Lunch was mediocre grilled chicken and pork with salad and rice and hot dogs with odd buns. The only drink option besides cheap wine was grape kool-aid. Yuck! All in all, the value for our dollar wasn't bad but the experience left a lot to be desired. I wouldn't recommend it unless you've got nothing else to do.

This trip was stated to run 4 hours it ran 6 hours, really quite a bit too long for this type of tour. Beach was too rocky to enjoy going into the ocean much, not a lot of direction as to what else to do on the beach, no other real activities. No chairs or equipment offered. Lunch is substandard, and the snorkeling, which they herald as being great is ok, but nothing phenomenally special.
The area where you enter to find the best snorkeling is filled with broken bottles and other debris. Got a bad rash from the dirty water there, which cleared up as soon as I got home. The boat ride, not a standard catamaran as advertised, was very nice though and the transportation part of the trip was wonderful. If you like the beach and snorkeling made easy try another tour, especially if you like snorkeling on the reefs about 200 yards offshore.
It was ok. There is not much to do on the island. Some more watersports would have been good, but the music on the ferry was good.
