This was a great trip. The staff was awesome, they were so much fun, very friendly, very knowledgeable, and professional. The first stop was to a beautiful beach where you could snorkel the reef there. The reef wasn't as good as the second, but the beach itself was worth going to. The snorkeling was beautiful on the second stop. Lunch was a combination of lunch meat, salads and fruit later on. It was just enough, and oh, the RUM was great too. They really know how to show you a good time! I would definitely take this trip again!!!

I was great and was definitely one of the top highlights of our trip to Puerto Rico. The staff is very friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable. If you have the time to do it on your trip, definitely go. The only downside was the first snorkel location. There were small jellyfish there which freaked me out a little, but they were avoidable. The second snorkel site was great though.

Absolutely loved it, loved it. My partner and I enjoyed snorkeling like never before. The crew of the Barefoot IV were incredible, the captian had the patience to teach even non swimmers. The islands picked were great. Three Cheers!!!!!

The snorkeling was fantastic. The crew gave a review, and then we were on our own in a wonderland for quite a bit of exploration. The reef is damaged from temperature increases in the water, but that highlights the importance of acting to save the reefs. The fins and equipment made it really enjoyable and exciting. The crew was great. The food was pretty good. The drinks were plentiful. They could add a chart of the fish, corals, and sponges that we saw, which were many.

My husband and I took this tour because we wanted to snorkel and wanted an easy way to do so. This tour was very fun! The Captain and staff on the Catamaran were very funny and friendly. There was also a crew member who taught us beginners how to snorkel and went out into the reefs with us. The food was simple but fit with the atmosphere. I wouldn't think that children would get much fun out of this excursion but for adults it was a great time! And like everywhere else we went, the rum was flowing!

The trip was exactly as described. The staff was very nice and friendly and we had a very nice lunch. I did the trip with my husband, 18 year old daughter and her 19 year old boyfriend and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. The lunch was very nice and well prepared with something for everyone, then we were given a snack later with all kinds of fruits. I would definitely do it again, it was well worth the money.

The snorkeling trip was the highlight of my whole stay in Puerto Rico. The journey was executed smoothly and staff from the driver, the help-line lady to the crew of 'Barefoot' were very friendly, efficient and helpful. I agree with everything previous reviewers said about the trip i.e., great drinks, food, and the 2nd snorkeling spot is better than the first one. Besides, I would like to thank the guy who coached us first-timers how to snorkel the right way, and led us into the explorations. He's an extremely nice and helpful man! With his help, my 60 year old mom was able to enjoy her first ever snorkeling. The view was absolutely stunning! I only wish they could give us more time on the island the first stop. I highly recommend this trip to anybody!

It was a fabulous day of sailing and snorkeling! Icacos was a beautiful beach and the 2nd stop had an amazing coral reef. The crew was wonderful. I recommend sitting on the right side of the boat if you want some shade. Loved the fresh fruit on the way back!

My husband and I enjoyed this experience while on our honeymoon. We did a lot of adventure tours while there, and this was our favorite. It's about as adventurous as you want it to be. I stayed on the catamaran a little more than my husband. He really enjoyed the snorkeling and was on a search for a conch shell. He even dove down and found one! The boat was really fun, and the crew were young and spirited; they played great music and served a great lunch. The food was filling and the drinks were plentiful. The offshore snorkeling was amazing. The water was really clear, and the variety of sea life amazing. I personally enjoyed the secluded island with its pristine beach and variety of seashells. I didn't want this day to end. It was our favorite day out of our seven day stay.

The trip was absolutely wonderful. We were picked up next door to our hotel promptly at 8:20. It was about an hour ride over to Fajardo, which was the only real drawback of the trip. When we got aboard the Barefoot IV, it was wonderful. I think rum is actually cheaper than pina colada mix in PR, because you had to say "Whoa, thats enough!!", or they would give you half a cup of rum in your mixed drink! Thats a nice problem to have. Snorkeling was amazing, lunch was good, and the water was indescribably beautiful. Highly recommended.

Great value for the money. Captain and his crew made the trip worthwhile. He took us to top-rate coral with lots of colorful fish. The vessel was in great condition.

Anyone visiting San Juan should definitely do this, the team was awesome and they were so funny. And to add to it the captain and all other workers were so hot! We had a great time and I will book with them again if I ever go back again to San Juan.
