“The boat is nice. The snorkel experience is meh…. There are definitely much better options outside of Florida. You should know that drinks are limited for the first half and open up to more options after the snorkel. The crew was fine other than the begging for tips. I was fully prepared to tip via Venmo as I did not have any cash until the one crew member started saying “ouch” to anyone not throwing cash in the jar. That type of entitlement is a real turnoff.”
