Recs for snorkel from boat excursion

[karenolas]

Our cruise leaves on the 5th of April, and I'd like to book a shore excursion, preferably with an independent vendor, for a snorkel boat trip for myself and my tween daughter.

 

Can anyone recommend a vendor and specific trip where we'll be wowed by the snorkel destination?

 

Thank you!

Coz snorkeling is only so so. I don't think there is any particular trip that will wow you. Most of them do drift snorkels not too far off shore.

My family just got back from Cozumel and we went out snorkeling with Mystic snorkeling. It's a three stop snorkel at 3 different depths. The first is about 10 feet, the second between 20 and 30 feet in the third stop was 40 to 50 feet. The guide Cuchi would dive down and bring up things like conchs, sand dollars and other things for us to see at the deeper spots. You may not be able to get very up close and personal with the coral heads at the deeper spots, but seeing the sheer size of the coral heads was amazing. They take you out on a small boat with usually only 12 to 15 people. Lots of personalized service and it was a lot of fun.
