This was a great day out. The staff on Silversonic were excellent, knowledgeable and helpful. They managed to organise everyone so you never felt the boat was crowded or that you were rushed. They supplied great stinger suits, snorkel and mask and fins. They gave clear instructions on where to snorkel and where not to go, they watched the people in the water to ensure that no one was in trouble, and they assisted people who had never snorkeled before have a great experience. I would highly recommend this company and would book with them again. The food supplied was plentiful and tasty.
