Lauren and Joel were amazing! Joel jumps in while snorkeling to identify fish. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience

Lauren and Michelle were amazing! So much fun. Enjoyed snorkeling and the sandbar. Lauren and Michelle were very friendly and made this experience a great one. Highly recommend!
John Burke
What a fun experience!
Captains Chelsea & Jody were very professional, courteous, and made the trip a great time. It was a pleasant short trip to the sandbar and we had about 1 1/2 hours in the water. The water was waist deep, easy to walk around or swim in. We tried snorkeling which was pretty easy in the shallow water and saw a few fish close up. Our group included small
children up to seniors (us). I would not hesitate to take this trip again, both the experience and the cost were well worth it.

Captain and crew were amazing, the reef was beautiful, and the sandbar was the perfect end!
Jon Simon
Took the family snorkeling at Coffin point or reef or similar. It was fantastic. The staff at Sole were super knowledgeable, helpful and chill. My kids were a little nervous because they had never been snorkeling off a boat before, but they had the time of their lives! Just a great day.

Chelsea and Miguel took great care of everyone onboard this morning’s snorkeling excursion to Coffin’s Patch. We saw a ton of fish while we were snorkeling and they made sure we were safe and having fun the whole hour plus that we were out! What a memorable trip!

Our family had a wonderful time at the reef and sandbar! We especially appreciated that they offered to rebook us from a chilly windy morning to the afternoon. Staff were friendly and helpful!
Bobbie Hutton
It was a fun outing. The crew were very patient and accommodating and gave everybody more than enough time to enjoy the snorkeling and sandbar. I would do it again without hesitation!
Joshua Stewart
Had an amazing time with my family. We snorkeled the reef and went to the sand bar. It was worth the money for an amazing experience. The crew was so helpful and enhanced our trip. Highly recommend!

Great time with Jen and Matt, and our family! We would love to recommend the snorkel and sand bar excursion, followed by dinner at Angler and Ale!

Set off for reef snorkeling at Coffins Patch Sanctuary Preservation Area (SPA). 8-15' deep. The azure Caribbean water around the reef is the best place to observe the abundant SEA LIFE!
