I loved the snorkeling cruise on the Picante! Unlike one of the other reviews, the trip I went on was full of boozers (like me!) and we had an amazingly fun time. The crew was WONDERFUL (2 thumbs up for Fernando in his thong!). We snorkeled at Playa Manzanillo and the guides were great - we got to see a... more

We did the four hour snorkel and sail excursion. We were a little disappointed with the snorkeling as it was not very good and we only snorkeled for an hour at one location.

It's kind... more

We took the Sail and Snorkel by Picante Cruises in Zihua last week. 4 hour tour that took us to Manzanillo Beach for snorkeling, lunch and drinks on the boat, and a spinnaker ride in the harbor. Boat was nice and big, clean, well appointed, though crowded. Nice people, though, mostly families, no real boozers. Snorkeling was poor, very turbid... more
