What To Expect
Discover the Caribbean coast during a day by catamaran in a small group, between coral reefs, sea turtles and exploration of the underwater environment.
You live in several areas selected for the richness of their reefs and the regular presence of turtles. Fish, corals and other life forms are revealed, with exchanges on board to better understand the species observed.
At your own pace, you can also choose a bottle dive (baptism or exploration), supervised by qualified instructors.
In the late morning, head to an area frequented by sea turtles, which you observe in their natural environment.
The afternoon continues between snorkeling, paddles and access to a water playground on board.
The catamaran allows optimized navigation in consumption, complemented by the use of renewable energies on board, in an eco-responsible approach.
For those who wish to go further, a formula allows to deepen the discovery of turtles and marine biodiversity, with several supervised dives and certification.
A BBQ meal prepared on board, appreciated for its quality and friendliness, is offered at an additional cost.

Frequently Asked Questions (14)
The answers provided below were previously given in response to questions from Cool Destinations customers.
Filter by:
Yes, we allow pregnant women to go on snorkeling. However, it’s crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before doing so to assess your individual health and pregnancy stage.
Jan 2022Yes, this is possible, as long as you are comfortable going into the water. All Cool Destinations snorkeling tours adhere to strict safety regulations and have been designed to be enjoyed by all.
Your safety is our #1 priority, which is why:
- You will be wearing a flotation device at all times.
- On many tours, there is a stairway from the boat into the water so you won’t have to “jump” in!
- There are trained staff in the water and watching from the boat at all times.
For these reasons, we believe that even non-swimmers can have a wonderful time on our snorkeling trips, however, the final judgment call is yours to make. Please note we do not give refunds if you decide not to snorkel on the trip.
Oct 2021The snorkel gear we use on Cool Destinations tours is high quality and for your protection, the equipment is sanitized after each use. However, if you feel more comfortable using your own snorkeling equipment, feel free to bring it on the tour. Please note, there is no discount for providing your own equipment and we can’t be responsible for any lost or damaged items.
May 2023Participants in the Catamaran snorkelling turtles in small committee & diving option cannot fly in an airplane within 24 hours of their dive.
The main concern with scuba diving and flying is decompression sickness (DCS). Your body needs adequate time during an ascent to off-gas excess nitrogen, or you can form bubbles in your bloodstream, possibly leading to DCS.
Jun 2024First-time snorkelers can be assured of one-on-one instruction and assistance. We find introducing folks to our world very rewarding!
Oct 2021There are no legal age limits for snorkeling. We have found that age 5 or 6 is a good age to learn the basics of snorkeling, however, it’s entirely up to individuals to make the best choice for their family.
Sep 2021If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy.
