St. Maarten Eco Snorkel- Eco friendly- Green
The Eco Snorkel tour is unique as it combines a fully guided snorkeling experience with technology that will provide you with music and hear commentary about the reef, coral and fish.
Travel by boat to Pinel Island where your snorkel guide will provide you with a short briefing before fitting you with state-of-the-art equipment including an Amphicom snorkel which allows you to listen to a narrative about the coral reef and its inhabitants as you snorkel.
Your guide will help you get comfortable with your gear in shallow water.
As you glide slowly through the water the bottom will turn from sand to sea grass to reef.
Try to count the school of tang, watch as a turtle has a snack, hover above a group of squid, and wonder at the grace of an eagle ray.
Next you'll have time to enjoy the pristine beaches and Pinel Island. Walk along the pedestrian trail and enjoy lunch, on your own, in one of three restaurants before returning to your ship.
