Providencia Snorkelling Tour

  • 3 reviews | 25 travellers
    The activity was excellent. It was an intimate and personal tour as it was only me and my partner and the captain and guide. They explained the area in English and took us to amazing locations. We saw nurse sharks, starfish, sting ray, and many colorful fish. High quality snorkels and flippers were provided. If you ever go to Providencia, I highly recommend this tour. Even if you're not a strong swimmer, they make sure you are safe. I was getting tired and the guide held me along, amazing!

Description

At the indicated time, we'll meet you at the floating bar near Santa Catalina Bridge, where we'll board a boat that will bring us to snorkel in the crystal clear waters of Providencia.

First of all, we'll sail to Morgan's Head, where we'll anchor, and you'll have your first contact with the paradisiacal waters that bathe this rock. During the 20 minutes of snorkelling, you'll be able to appreciate the fascinating marine world that inhabits the area, admiring coloured fish and starfish.

We'll then return to the boat and approach Cayo Basalto and Cayo Palmera, at the back of Santa Catalina Island. On this second dive, you'll continue seeing the diversity of fish and corals that inhabit its waters, as well as stingrays and manta rays. Fascinating!

The third anchorage is Crab Cay, a small island located within the Old Providence McBean Lagoon National Park. Here, if you're lucky, you may spot turtles or barracudas. Finally, we'll go to White Soal to see the transplantation of corals and marine species from the waters of Providence.

Finally, we'll head back to the starting point after 3 hours of marine experience.
