We had a wonderful experience with Navego and our crew Arturo and Kristy. From the beginning communication was great, allowing us to plan our trip and know what to expect from start to finish. Our family included two small children and Angie was great working with us to accommodate the kids and tailor an experience that was as fun for them as it was for the adults.
The day before our trip, Angie called and we discussed final details as well as letting us know that due to an unexpected personal situation, there would be a substitute crew for our sail. That said, we could not have asked for a better crew! Arturo and Kristy handled everything beautifully from the very first meeting at the (very large!) marina all the way to arranging a drop off via golf cart right at our vehicle.
The one hiccup we had to deal with was the weather. On the morning of our sail squalls and rain showers were passing over Fajardo and the islands which delayed our departure approximately 45 mins. But Arturo and Kristy kept us entertained, refreshed and informed while we waited it out on the boat.
Once we were on the water, we enjoyed a spirited sail to Palomino Island, which the kids especially enjoyed. The spot they picked for snorkeling was relatively calm littlr cove and offered some great snorkeling. We spent the morning with lots of fish to chase and a number of sea turtle sightings! While we snorkeled they kept our youngest company on the boat and prepared a great snack spread that was a hit with both kids and adults. Drinks were kept refreshed and everyone well hydrated and in good spirits. We loved listening to Arturo and Kristy share their local knowledge and love of sailing with us.
This was absolutely the slam dunk highlight of our trip with lasting memories for all. I could not recommend Navego highly enough. We will definitely be back next time we are in Puerto Rico!
