We had such a great time! We were on a group trip with my husband's company and they made sure to take care of everything! The snorkels were clean and new, the flippers and gear were awesome! They provided food, we made delicious sandwiches and had pasta and delicious fresh fruit, they had Unlimited drinks. the boat captain and ship mates were all outgoing and so fun! They were very kind and attentive to our needs! We snorkeled the reef and basked in the sun! Make sure to bring lots of sunscreen cause no matter how much you apply you need to apply more lol.. lots of sun! Great experience! Highly recommend! read more

Had a great day on the water!! We went to 2 different islands and saw all kinds of marine life... sea turtles sting rays, schools of fish, etc... They provide lunch and all u can drink!!! Definitely recommend to friends and family read more

Traveler Catamaran - Snorkeling Near Me

We had an amazing time, since it was during the pandemic we didn't have the food buffet and was a bit disappointed to just get a bag lunch- it wasn't as good as when they have food laid out and they also didn't provide bread to feed to the fish so there was very little fish to see. I know it sounds like all negatives but it was literally due to the pandemic. Traveler overall is a great experience and I love relaxing and the team is great! read more

We took this catamaran today to go to Icacos Island and do some snorkeling. It was an amazing experience!! The captain was excellent, very informative of the places we passed, and recommended places to visit. The crew was very polite, entertaining, helpful. Sandwiches were fresh and the drinks were included in the price paid. The island was amazing, the water such a beautiful turquoise color and deep blue when the ocean got deeper. I loved every minute of it!! Felt very safe and will do this again next time I come to PR. Thank you for a wonderful day!! And for recommending La Estación Restaurant, which was amazing too!! read more

I booked this excursion after a recommendation from an Uber driver-So glad I listened! My Airbnb was in Carolina so Fajardo is a 40 minute drive which is far compared to other local options. However it's worth the trip and allows you a chance to experience more of the island than if you stay local. Once you get to the pier, there is street parking that was very convenient. There is also a boat house with stalls and showers that make it convenient to change into and out of your swim gear. At first we thought that we wouldn't be able to go to both of the locations included in the tour but the weather cleared up and we were good to go. The staff was so great! Very friendly, fun, and knowledgeable. The lunch was sub buffet style-different meats, cheeses, and toppings with a few cold salad options. They also offer rum punch, water, and sodas once lunch begins. So if your the type to get a bit thirsty, bring a water bottle with you too. Definitely ensure you bring a hat, sunglasses, and tons of sunblock! You are out for hours in the sun. The excursion itself is amazing! Stunning ocean views, pristine beaches, water slide, great music! Do yourself a favor and book this excursion! read more

I must start by writing about The amazing crew! Francis, the other girl ( I cannot recall her name), Geo and Capt. Angel were phenomenal and made sure we had a great time. They even offered a quick snorkeling/swimming lesson for those who were snorkeling for their first time, or didn't know how to swim. The lunch was pretty good, they served cold cuts and fresh fruit; and of course, unlimited rum! Also, they had a great playlist... read more

This was for sure a highlight of our trip. It was a beautiful day. The boat ride alone was worth the price of admission We went to the Icacao Island. Beautiful beach. Lunch was great. Rum was plentiful. After spending a couple of hours there, we moved out to a reef for real snorkeling, sunshine, music and more rum. Captain Tyrone, First Mate Benji and Hostess Frances were so much fun. Accommodating and informative. Our catamaran held 20 people. I recommend you make sure you are on one of the smaller catamarans as some of them had 45 or 50 people on board and it seemed crowded and certainly a lot less intimate. We got to know people from Puerto Rico, Canada, New Jersey, and Phoenix during our time on the boat. As it was Christmas Eve, we sailed back to the marina singing and dancing to Christmas music. I would consider this a must do adventure when visiting Puerto Rico, even if you don't like to snorkel. read more

Great staff and service. We were staying in Candado and it was well worth the trip over to Fajardo, Puerto Rico. I recommend the afternoon trip because you get to have a relaxing afternoon and enjoy the the beautiful Puerto Rico sunsets. Great time! read more

Went out on this catamaran last week and was lots of fun! The captain and the guys were soo nice and took care of you really well the places we went- Icacos and some other island- were the most beautiful water lots of fish to see... I really wanted to give 5 stars, however the food was terrible, the chicken and tuna salad had NO flavor what so ever and the "pasta" salad was the worse I've ever had. NO FLAVOR! That is my ONLY complaint, I went out with Salty Dog catamaran last year and their deli lunch was on point. So please guys put some love and flavor into the lunch and I'm sure that it will be a 5 star trip next time! read more

It was my first time on a catamaran, and we did the snorkeling by Culebra. It was a lot of fun. The boat ride was about an hour each way, and the boat went pretty fast. I was sitting towards the back of the boat, and whenever the front of the boat made a splash, I would eat it and got pretty drenched. We had 2 stops where we got into snorkeling gear and jumped off of the boat. I got to see a lot of coral reefs, cool looking fishes, and even a turtle! Too bad the water was a little bit cloudy. The boat itself looked to be pretty new. The Captain was very nice and courteous. He pointed out where to snorkel to see the coral reefs and which areas to avoid. He even brought out a boogie board to give people who weren't good swimmers something to hold onto, as he swam them around the bay so they could have the snorkeling experience. Lunch was provided - some bread, ham, tuna, cheese, cold pasta salad, some cantaloupes and oranges, and potato chips. Overall, I had a lot of fun and had a great time. read more

Traveler Catamaran - Saw a Sea Turtle! - Snorkeling Near Me

This was super awesome and an INCREDIBLE deal. To start. I was a bit worried about how our whole group would fit comfortably on the boat, but it turns out that there was nothing to worry about. The staff of the Traveler was friendly, fun, and knowledgable. I've never snorkeled before this, and they were extremely patient with me and great teachers. Along with two snorkeling spots, the price includes lunch and drinks after eleven. I was full, content, and buzzed for an affordable price. This adventure made me very, VERY happy! read more

We booked this tour combined with the biolumiscent bay tour together through GSI. While my negative experience with that company darkened the experience slightly, nothing could have been more fun that this excursion. I think that the sign in process could have been better explained, we were told that our card was run upon booking, but it turns out only the deposit had been, and we owed a significant amount of money that we didn't expect. Okay, we paid and sat down in the designated spot. They offered water or soft drinks while waiting for all parties to show up, a total of 45 people. They sized us with flippers and snorkeling masks before telling us the rules. They really rushed through where to sit, how to flush the "toilet" etc, but once we were on we figured it out pretty well. I did think that the boat was pretty overcrowded, but everyone was friendly enough. We were cruising at about 10 mph so it never got too fast, but we were joined by a happy dolphin jumping along with us. It was about an hour out to the Icacaos Island, an uninhabited beautiful place with an immature reef. They offered lessons to newbies, and provided tubes to strap around your waist if you were uncomfortable. Once we were anchored they pulled out a lunch buffet that included chicken salad, tuna salad, turkey, ham, pasta salad, cheese, pickles and cookies. They also had complimentary rum punch, pina colada drinks, and pop. It was all self guided so Michael and I spent about an hour in the reef, half hour exploring the amazing island and half hour eating/drinking. I was surprised how many people just hung out on the boat. This reef was only about 8 feet deep. After a couple hours we moved to the Tortuga Reef, which was situated at 25-30 feet deep with a much more mature reef. Here we saw a nurse shark, a puffer fish, several parrotfish, a sea turtle and many cool marine plants. Drinks were bottomless, and so was the sun. Pro-tip I was I would have realized... your back and butt and backs of legs are constantly served up to the southern sun for hours, LATHER ON THE SUNSCREEN! I covered my front well, but was quite uncomfortable on the plane ride back the next morning. I really think that this was an amazing experience. So tranquil, but so much fun. I would absolutely recommend this company and this tour to anyone looking to get out to the ocean and see some fishies :) read more

Traveler Catamaran - First stop at Icacos Island! - Snorkeling Near Me

I booked this excursion for my boyfriend and myself for a company work function. The staff was very friendly, pleasant boat ride, the food they served was delicious, and the reefs were amazingly filled with fish and other life. I think Angela was the best part. She was overly nice, a caring, inviting woman that made snorkeling a lot more fun The only thing I have to complain about is how crowded the boat was. Then that translated into crowded snorkeling. I was fighting to get a close up of the reef. I wouldn't have picked another excursion after experiencing this one. This was the best day of my vacation in Puerto Rico read more

Traveler Catamaran - Snorkeling Near Me

The whole family had a great time. the Staff called us to make sure we were coming since we were running late. The day before we received text message communicatio of where to go, when to arrive and a reminder to complete our waiver. The one thing we wished was that the boat was closer to shore when we got off at the beach. Since we had to swim to shore we could not bring things we wanted such as towels, drinks and snacks. Our favorite part was snorkeling. The water was clear, the reef was beautiful and the sea life was abundant. read more

There is not enough stars that I could give to this crew! Of course it was an amazing, breathtaking adventure- but any boat ride to the Icacos island would probably fit the description. What was unlike any other tour company was the staff/crew. They were caring (I got motion sickness a bit), knowledgeable (fun facts, geography etc), and hospitable (service, drinks to the T). But to TOP IT OFF- I lost my designer sunglasses coming off the boat, and like duh, they're lost at sea right? Wrong! One of the crew members (Brian?) swam to the bottom of the Caribbean to retrieve my shades. Literally enough said. Best story about service ever. read more

So worth the money. The crew is excellent. The destinations are perfecto! Including drinks and lunch on the catamaran and you've got a bargain! read more

Traveler Catamaran - Snorkeling Near Me

First of all, this was one of the highlights of our trip to PR. The crystal clear water of Icacao was breathtaking. The highlights: The crew was really nice- I don't remember his name, but one of the guys got in with us when we were snorkeling and made sure everyone was doing well. When we were worried about some jellyfish we saw he explained that they were not the poisonous type and picked one up to show us. The food and drinks were pretty good. The challenges: The catamaran only had a small seating area covered. The rest of us were out in the Caribbean sun for 6 hours straight with no shade. Even with sunscreen, going in and out of the water left me and others severely sunburned. If they had asked those in the shade to move for the second half or something maybe it could have worked, but it was a lot of sun with no reprieve. They also began on island time, so we showed up at 8:15 as we were instructed and they weren't ready for us until after 9. Considering I had to get my 5 family members up and out so early, had to mention it. Like I said, it was a great experience overall. Just a few notes to be aware of. read more

I just finished a whole day of sailing, snorkeling and swimming in the Caribbean with The Traveler. I used a booking agency that uses them and told me that my girlfriend and I wouldn't be disappointed and we weren't!!! From the moment when you get to the dock, they have it all organized and are ready to make sure that you have a fabulous day. The crew members were awesome and fun. We went to two different areas to get snorkeling with the fish and the second spot was so incredible. They provide food, beverages, afternoon snacks and the best Rum Punch I've had since being here. I'm sure going to use them on my next trip to Puerto Rico!!! IM Simi Valley, CA read more

My husband, my mom, my three year-old daughter and I were all *so* excited about the sailing/snorkeling excursion we planned with Traveler Catamaran. This was an unforgettable experience for all of us. Let me start by saying: take Dramamine. At least one of our fellow passengers became quite ill on the trip out to Icacos and was unable to enjoy the day at all. Don't let this be you! Just bring the Dramamine and you'll be fine. :) We swam off the island for awhile before getting back on the boat to eat lunch, which was quite delicious! We also consumed our fair share of pina coladas -- yum! We then traveled over to the snorkeling area. The water was pretty cloudy/murky, so visibility was limited. But it was my first time snorkeling, and I didn't care about the minimal visibility -- I still got to see plenty of fish and the beautiful coral reef! I do recommend bringing your own dry snorkel; totally worth it to not have to worry about water getting in your snorkel. While my mom and I were snorkeling, my daughter was quite upset she couldn't get in the water with us. But crew member Frances saved the day: she filled a large plastic tub with water so my daughter could have her own "ocean." She had the best time splashing in that tub and clambering in and out of it! Captain Robert and crew were incredibly nice and accommodating. They took great care of us and kept us very informed of what we would be doing and when -- I really can't say enough good things about them. Just before leaving the snorkeling area, Frances spotted an injured baby leatherback sea turtle and rescued it. Before calling it in to the animal rescue group, Frances let my daughter name the turtle, which she enjoyed immensely. :-) Seriously, this crew was unbeatable. Very professional, yet warm and welcoming. I highly recommend this tour; it's great for everyone...couples, young people, families and kids. read more

I did a lot of research on snorkeling/boat tours in PR before choosing this one and I'm so happy I did. This excursion lives up to all the great reviews, and for less than $100 per person for a full day including lunch, rum drinks, and transportation, its a steal. We were picked up in old San Juan with no problems and after a few other pickups, its about a 45 minutes ride to Farjado. Upon arrival, we we're fitted with snorkeling gear before setting sail on the Traveler catamaran. First, we journeyed to a small island called Icacos. On the boat, you can sit out front to enjoy the ride and get a tan. While at Icacos, you can practice snorkeling at a small reef near shore, relax on the beach, try out paddle-boarding, and eat a delicious lunch on the boat. After about two hours at Icacos, we moved to a large and very active coral reef about a half mile off shore to snorkel. The amount and the variety of fish is unbelievable. There are so many in a variety or beautiful colors and patterns and they're not afraid to get close to you. Snorkeling here was exciting yet relaxing. When you've had enough snorkeling or want to take a break, you can climb back aboard for some rum drinks and fresh fruit and to enjoy the sun some more. After 2 hours or so at the reef, we headed back to the dock in Farjardo. Overall, this tour is definitely a great way to spend a day of your vacation. read more

This was one of my husband's and my favorite things we did during our week in Puerto Rico. My husband and I went out on a Wednesday with Traveler's Catamaran to go snorkeling. The boat fits about 50 people but as it was in the middle of the week and not peak season we had about half that on the boat. It made it more enjoyable not to be packed in. The catamaran captain and staff were very nice and accommodating to the passengers. The price includes a nice buffet lunch (make your own sandwiches and a pasta salad). Drinks on the catamaran are unlimited rum drinks. The boat does a shorter trip to a quiet island with a nice sandy beach. You can practice your snorkeling skills there, or swim around in the beautiful water or just relax on the beach. After staying there for about 2 hours you move on to where there is a coral reef to snorkel and swim again. The underwater views are beautiful, the water was warm, it had to be warm for me to go in. The catamaran returns to the marina under sail power. All in all, a very fun excursion with a very good company. read more

If I could give them more stars I would. We were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and this place made it memorable. They have this well organized and the people are super duper nice. I cannot stress this enough take sunscreen and put it on - I learned the hard way I was concerned with putting it on my husband and forgot about myself. The boat ride out is amazing, the swimming, snorkeling its a blast. The food was great and they kept the drinks coming. There is not a lack of food, drinks or superior service that's for sure. THEY GO ALL OUT to make sure you are happy and enjoying your time. Please Please make sure you take this journey, you wont regret it!!!!!! read more

This was an awesome day trip to Icacos. The crew took great care of us they are very attentive and made sure everyone in the boat had a good time. They teach you how to snorkel properly, give you tips & serve you all the drinks you want. Can't get better than that! They make you feel part of the family definitely would do it again. read more

Traveler Catamaran - Icacos - Snorkeling Near Me

My wife and I have done catamaran and boat snorkel trips in Barbados, the Bahamas, and now out of Farjado, Puerto Rico. The PR experience is the best one one yet. The boat was brand new and super clean obviously (we did not ride on catamaran, we were on a Newton 46 Dive Special - see picture: http://www.floridaseabasenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/319_1963b.jpg) The staff included a Captain and two mates. They all worked hard to make sure that all of the passengers were safe and having a good time. They served food, drinks, adult drinks - very regularly. They also spent a few minutes with every single member of the group (about 25 people) in order to make sure their snorkeling gear was working, and that they were happy and situated. My kids had never been snorkeling - so seeing some sea turtles was pretty high up on their list! We definitely saw turtles and it was a truly awesome experience for my family! Highly recommend booking a trip with these guys - whether it is on the catamaran or the Dive Special boat. read more

These guys were awesome!! Easy check-in process, friendly on-shore staff, and the boat crew was phenomenal!! Captain Eric was very skilled at maneuvering the catamaran, and his crew, Benjie and Geo provided the "comic relief"! Geo also did a fine job of manning the bar. And just for an extra bit of entertainment, while we were preparing to go snorkeling, he masterfully plucked a moon jellyfish from the water, and brought it on deck for everyone to see/touch/hold. I've taken these snorkel catamaran trips all over the world and these guys are among the best!! read more

Catamaran was nice. Staff quiet but ok. Buffet of sandwiches, pasta salad and fruit was good. 1st island they stopped at was gorgeous and snorkeling was decent. They give you instructions on the boat then just let you off on your own. Slide off the back of the boat for "kids" aka anyone under 180 lbs. Drinks available on way back of pina coladas and rum punch. Good time, but not a "party" boat if that's what your looking for. read more

Wow!! This was the highlight of our trip to Puerto Rico. It was our first time and you always want to make the "special excursions" worthwhile. I found a lot of other snorkeling expeditions for a lot more money but they booked up fast. When I called to inquire about Traveler, I got their voicemail but they got back right away. I saw all the reviews on Yelp so I was going in with a very positive attitude. The staff, especially Angelina (who is hilarious and as sweet as they get) are incredible. They know their stuff and you felt taken care of the entire trip. For $100, they pick you up at your location (we were staying in the Candado area of San Juan) and then drive you out to Fajardo, where the Catamaran leaves from. The driver is really great and knowledgable of the sights along the way. We went through a huge rain storm and were alarmed but it was just because we were passing through where the rainforest is. On to the trip. Two islands. The first you can get lessons for free to acclimate. Even if you're a good swimmer, take em. It's worth it. You get to see a lot of cool things in the first reef but it's more shallow. The second is a bit further out and deeper and it's like being plunked inside the coolest aquarium in the world. The most beautiful and gentle fish. It's breathtaking. In addition, they serve a buffet lunch where you make your own sandwiches and they have salads and fruit. Bar opens at 11 am but pace yourself. It's completely included in the price and I saw some folks down 10+ and were pretty buzzed at the end. All in all...it was amazing and it's our go to place when we visit again!! read more

Where do I begin!? This was by far our favorite excursion!!! From placing the reservation over the phone to being dropped off at our hotel...this was a wonderful experience! Frances is funny, kind, patient (she's the snorkel whisperer for those that are not comfortable with snorkeling) and did I say funny? Capt. Eric blows a conch shell like nobody's business, & Angel and "Choupie-Ben" will step in and make a drink for ya, grab your plates after lunch, collect your snorkel gear after you're done with it...basically everyone is there to make sure YOU have a great time! Lunch was pretty good (chicken and tuna salad, pasta salad or make your own deli sandwich). Afternoon snack was fresh fruit. Rum punch and Piña Colada (virgin options available too), sodas, water and juice were the beverage selections. Everyone was encouraged to eat, grab another plate, get more drinks...no shame here, Momma likes to eat so I welcomed the invitation for round 2 (and 3 and 4 haha). The water was the perfect temperature, skies were blue...the crew was the cherry on top of an already perfect day! Now go book your trip! read more

Both my wife and I loved this trip! Great guides! Super knowledgeable and personable. The beach in the island of Icacos was pristine. And the guides make sure to let you know that that is the way they want to keep it. They take a lot of pride in the environment. This is definitely a trip worth taking! The snorkeling was unbelievable. The weather was perfect. You are in the Caribbean so be prepared for scattered showers. The rain added to the experience.
