We took this trip in mid June as a party of 8. There were 4 other passengers and three crew. Captain Paul and his beautiful first mate "Kim" were great hosts. The other guy (Alex?) was very quiet, but always hanging back during the snorkeling to make sure everyone was ok, I think. The boat was very comfortable in the... more

My husband and I took this trip the first week of June and loved this tour. This was one of our best days on the island. Captain Alan and Colleen were wonderful hosts/guides! I would love to have their jobs. We've been back home one week and my husband misses the snorkeling. This is definitely a tour not to be... more

We were picked up from our cruise ship and taken to Alan's boat. He and his wife did a great job This is an intimate snorkeling cruise with a few people, not a booze cruise on a giant cat with 50 people. Alan gets in the water and leads the snorkeling at each location so you get to see everything.... more

Captain Alan arranged our transportation from the cruise ship to his dock. We stepped off the ship and found our driver exactly where we were told to find him. The weather precluded the normal tour (rough seas). He offered a full refund - or a plan 'B'. We chose the plan 'B' and had the best time of our entire... more

We had a wonderful afternoon snorkeling with Captain Alan. He struck the correct balance between fun and safety. His "mud bath" was a real unique experience. It was really fun. more

We visited Friday March 27th and we had a great time. Captain Alan and Colleen took us on a fun 3 island tour. It was informative, a great way to see the area and we got to swim with all kinds of sealife including turtels, fish, and even a stingray. It was fun and very interactive. On one of the... more

We booked this excursion ourselves online and were visiting St. Maarten during a cruise stop. We booked a 4 hour private catamaran ride for 10 people. The taxi was there to pick us up on time, however, it was our fault that one couple ran into some delays when getting off the boat, which put us a little behind (about... more

The trip was excellent, Captain... more

Monday January 26, 2009 Captain Alan and his wife Colleen have it all figured out. It's money well spent if you are looking for a perfect way to spend the day in St. Maarten. Alan and Colleen are no BS kind of people that in my humble opinion have your interests at heart this is a very grass roots kind... more
