“That was so much fun!!! It was a little slow at first with the glass bottom boat being a little crowded and hard to see the ocean floor as we moved through the water, but once we got to the platform for the scuba doos and get in the clear warm water, it was awesome! We snorkeled for several minutes and did the Scuba doo as advertised. Then the pictures they took of me and my husband were very cute with a lot of fish swimming around. I highly recommend this adventure.”

“Der Transfer vom Hotel zum Ausgangspunkt war zu lang. Ca 1:15 Stunden. Zu erst sind wir mit einem kleinen Boot zum Boot mit dem Glasboden gefahren. Dann zum Ausgangspunkt wo das Schnorcheln und das ScubaDoo Abenteuer anfängt. Im Glasboden Boot hat man so gut wie nichts gesehen. Nicht ein Fisch oder einen interessanten Untergrund. Dauer ca. 10 Minuten. Dann wurde uns alles erklärt. Von einem Tauchabenteuer, das dich an Bord eines unserer Scuba-Motorräder zu einigen der schönsten und unberührtesten Gegenden in der Karibik führt und bei dem du das Scuba-Doo-Tauchen wie ein echter Taucher genießen kannst, habe ich nichts mitbekommen. Fast nichts gesehen, zu dunkel. Dauert ca. 15 Minuten. Fische…”
