The experience
Four hours from Fajardo means you're on the water by 9am or 2:30pm, depending on which departure you pick. The Oh Gee catamaran carries you out to Icacos Island and the Cayos de la Cordillera Nature Reserve, a protected marine area where the water stays shallow and clear enough for all experience levels. You get mask, snorkel, fins and a floating belt. The crew handles the rest.
The snorkeling stop puts you in front of colorful reefs, sea fans and coral formations where tropical fish move through the shallow water. You're not watching from a boat. You're in the water with the gear, moving at your own pace. Between snorkeling and beach time, the crew keeps refreshing drinks flowing on deck, and you can rest in the shade or stay in the sun. Music plays, the catamaran rocks gently, and the only schedule is the one the captain keeps.
Lunch arrives as a buffet-style sandwich spread, a fruit platter, and your choice of piña coladas, passion fruit coladas or sodas with rum. The sail back to Fajardo gives you time to dry off, watch the coastline recede and feel the ocean breeze without rushing. You're back at the dock by 1pm or 6:30pm depending on which tour you booked.
Is this one for you?The morning departure gets you back by early afternoon. The afternoon tour works if you want the morning free in Fajardo or elsewhere on the island.
