Explore San Andrés by boat to Rocky Cay and Aquarium, with clear water, snorkeling, practical tips, costs, timing, and honest advice.

“I had the activity scheduled for March 27, 2024. They had not sent me the tickets and when they finally did, there was no information about the place where we should arrive. I contacted the two contact numbers they have, 3103675667, and no one responded. It always goes to the mailbox to the number it has and they don't respond either Since that same day and until now I continue writing to them, trying to contact the operator but no one responds. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT AT ALL”

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 8 reviews · from $23Best value

Review of San Andrés Natural Aquarium boat trip, with snorkeling, costs, pier tips, itinerary details, and honest advice on value.

“Apart from the place which would be beautiful but is overcrowded and poorly managed (boats and boats unloading people) the transfer was really badly organized.
