See what our guests are saying about this tour, the crew was super friendly and professional..
Everything was well organized. The crew was super friendly and professional. Even lunch break, which is usually “plain” was very good. The snorkeling was a fun experience but the highlight of this excursion was definitely the flamenco beach! It’s a trip I recommend.
Will definitely use East Island Excursions again
Very well organized and punctual, staff were professional and knowledgeable. Will definitely recommend East Island Excursions for Culebra trip.
Food and drinks were excellent lots of it plus snorkeling equipment was in excellent condition. Culebra trip was fun and will definitely use East Island Excursions again.
Full Day Snorkeling & Beach Trip to Culebra
This was a FANTASTIC excursion & my family & I (3 adults) would do this again in a heartbeat. The boat is clean, beautiful & well maintained. The crew is so nice & professional, & they take passenger safety & satisfaction seriously while ensuring FUN! Our trip had a diverse mix of ages, which was nice.
The boat ride from the m arina to the snorkeling spot in Culebra took about 1 hour 15 min. to get to & we left promptly at 9am. We snorkeled for about an hour with the lunch buffet put out during that time. An hour was plenty IMO & we did not feel rushed or unable to enjoy our lunch, which was a nice spread. There were even options for my vegetarian husband to enjoy. The beverages did not disappoint. The snorkeling was so beautiful & everything is provided.
Our captain was unable to take us to Flamenco Beach safely due to conditions, so instead we were taken to Culebrita island to spend about 2 hrs +/- for beach time. It was GORGEOUS! We swam, relaxed, & had the best time & it appeared that everyone else did as well. The return trip back to the marina took about the same time as going out.
Highest ratings for Capt. Javi & his crew – Dani, Angel, Adrian, & Diego (sorry if I missed anyone). I was truly impressed with the level of service they provided to everyone on board. I was initially hesitant to book this trip out of concern for it being too crowded or too much of a younger, party-hard crowd, but that was not at all the case. East Island Excursions does a top-notch job & I highly recommend them based on my experience.
This experience is one to remember
I was extremely pleased with the customer service on this excursion. Anyone can take the ferry in Puerto Rico and have access to culebra beaches, but this experience is one to remember and not one to miss. I came with my family (6 people) and at first we were hesitant about the price compared to just taking the ferry but it was worth every $. I vacation often and take many excursions and not often do I feel like you get the true value of what you pay for, but with this company you do.
We did the half day tour to culebra (flamenco beach) and snorkeling. Everything you need is provided for you expect sunscreen and a towel. I will definitely be back.
