Negril: Glass Bottom Boat, Snorkeling & Booby Cay IslandYou get picked up from your Negril resort, ride out on a glass bottom boat to see the reef from above, then snorkel for an hour in Coral Reef with provided gear and a guide who knows where to look. After that, Booby Cay Island for swimming and optional grilled fish, then back to the beach. Hotel return included.Is it for me?Book this if you want to see the reef without arranging your own boat or gear — the pickup, equipment, and timing are handled, so you just show up at your hotel ready to go.
Snorkeling in Negril: Reef, Caves & Rick's Cafe SunsetSnorkel the Negril reef and the limestone caves off the coast with a live guide, then cruise to Rick's Cafe to watch the sunset and jump off the cliffs if you want. The boat includes an open bar with beer, rum punch, sodas, juice and water; snorkeling equipment; and pickup from your beach. The whole outing runs three hours.Is it for me?This is a shared boat with a live guide, so you're snorkeling with other travelers and Captain Jace is leading the experience—it suits anyone who wants the reefs and caves explained and doesn't want to navigate or manage the logistics themselves. If you prefer to snorkel independently or in a private group, look for a different option.
Snorkeling in Negril: Seven Miles Beach, boat ride & Rick's CafeThis snorkeling tour in Negril combines a walk on Seven Miles Beach, a glass-bottom boat ride to coral reefs and fish sanctuaries, snorkeling, and sunset at Rick's Cafe—all with private transportation and an English-speaking guide. Lunch on the island runs about $30 and is at your own expense; optional activities like parasailing and jet skiing are also available for an extra fee. The tour runs roughly five and a half hours and suits all fitness levels.Is it for me?Book this if you're based in Negril and want to combine beach swimming with cliff jumping and sunset dining at Rick's Café in one outing—private transport means you move between both spots without coordinating separate rides or meeting times.
Snorkeling in Negril: Booby Cay, pirate caves & Rick's CafeThis seven-hour snorkeling cruise from Negril takes you to a coral reef off Seven Mile Beach, abandoned pirate caves at the Negril Cliffs, and Booby Cay Island for a grilled lobster lunch cooked over fire coal. A knowledgeable captain teaches you about the sea life and reef ecology at each stop; an open bar with rum punch, beer and water runs the whole day. The tour ends at Rick's Cafe at sunset, where you can jump from the cliffs or watch from the boat. Lobster season closes April 21–June 30, when the kitchen serves crab, fish or shrimp instead.Is it for me?Book this if you want snorkeling at multiple reefs plus a full meal and drinks without stopping to pay—the open bar and grilled lunch on Booby Cay are built into the seven hours, so the day flows without breaks for ordering or settling tabs.
