We had an amazing time snorkelling with Blue Hole. Right from the booking experience to the actual day we snorkelled. Our guide was Mark who took us to a calm area with plenty of colourful fish. I be a weak swimmer was reassured that the life preserver would keep me a float and it did. Mark explained the history of... More

This is as close as you can get to a private snorkel tour! We came to Nassau on a cruise and wanted a snorkel tour that was not packed with people. I found Blue Hole Watersports through some online reviews and it was exactly what we wanted. We booked it through their website and got quick feedback from them. I... More

We searched out Nassau snorkeling excursions on this site and came across Basil. We emailed back and forth extensively, this was our first trip to Nassau. We were on a cruise and didn't want the big group experience. What a fantastic day. First thing when coming off the cruise ship, you are bombarded by other people hitting you up for... More

Growing up in the water in South Florida I have a certain expectation of what a "snorkeling experience" should be. I am also realistic that weather and water conditions are beyond the operators control. Luckily both were perfect! We were in the Bahamas by way of a cruise ship and I thought Blue Hole could get us away from the... More

Our family of four (2 adults, 2 children ,ages 7 & 9) went on a 2 hour snorkel tour with Blue Hole while in Nassau for the day from our cruise ship and had a wonderful time! My husband and I had snorkeled before but our little girls have only previously snorkeled in a swimming pool so we didn't want... More

Previous reviewers were correct in recommending Blue hole water sports for a snorkeling trip. My husband and I are avid snorkelers. We prefer to go in small groups rather than a big party boat. There were two other couples with us. after a quick stop for gas we were on our way to the snorkeling spot. I was the first... More

I wanted a private snorkeling trip while my cruise was docked in Nassau and I must say, I found the perfect guy to take us out! Basil is so great - he showed us all the different areas and genuinely seemed excited to take us out. He made us very comfortable the entire time. When we got to the snorkeling... More

We've snorkeled with Basil twice. Once in January 2010 with another married couple we were cruising with and again as a girls trip in Dec. 2011. What drove us to Basil was his offering of a more intimate snorkeling experience. We didn't want to be on those large boats with 50 plus people. Basil didn't disappoint. He was kind, courteous,...

Basil at Blue Hole water Sports was an excellent instructor for a first time non swimmers like my friend and I who went snorkeling. He gave us a good discount and a great one on one experience / tour of the Atlantis view. More

We have gone on over 4 snorkeling trips with your team and each have been fantastic. Your team is very friendly and listens to exactly the type of snorkeling experience we are looking for on each trip. With that information they have consistently provided a reef location that meets our expectations. We have used other tour providers in Nassau, but... More
