I did the tour to icacos island and palomino with the captain Jay, pablito and I forgot the tall guy name but three of them were great! We had a blast on our tour. Drinks were amazing. The crew was making sure we were safe and the most important part make sure we had fun and we enjoy the tour. Thanks for everything !! I will be back.

The spot chosen for snorkeling was just amazing. Flamenco beach is definitely a must. But what made a difference is the awesome Sail Getaways crew. All of them were super attentive and nice with us. They went above and beyond to ensure our trip was perfect. Not once I had to order for a refill of my drink. 11 out of 10, 100% recommended, I'll definitely repeat.

Was all of our first time and it was so beautiful and fun. We got to see a barracuda, big jellyfish and a bunch of other little fish. We enjoyed the guys explaining everything, Oscar was fun and kept us entertained since the music wasn't working haha. Loved that lunch and alcohol was included, was so worth the money!

We went with a friend to visit Culebra Island and everything was very nice, the trip was very pleasant, the guides were very attentive, VERY good music and food, I recommend them, 10/10!!

Wonderful experience. Clear turquoise water, white sandy beaches, lush green islands, and a remarkable crew. It was a perfect day of swimming, snorkeling, and positive vibes all around. Highly recommend these guys.

My friend and I took the tour to Tamarindo and Flamenco beach and it was amazing. The weather was perfect which made the ride super smooth. We were a fortunate group to enjoy a beautiful day. It was our first time experience and we loved it. We are beginner swimmers (to say the least) and the gentlemen were kind enough to get in the water with us so we wouldn’t miss the opportunity. Everyone on the boat was super friendly and made us feel like family! It’s definitely a must do activity when visiting the island. Looking forward to many more!!!

It was soo much fun. We took off on time went snorkeling not many fishes but still a great experience then we went to the flamingo island and got 2 hours to ourself to enjoy l. Crew was super friendly and kept the drinks coming. Would totally recommend

Great quick getaway for our group of 13. Quick boat ride to snorkel, excellent fish viewing and lunch. Then a quick boat ride to Flamenco Beach to wander around. The staff was friendly, knowledgable, and patient.

We took the three-in-one catamaran getaway on New Year's Day with Omar and Arturo. Our group was 2 adults a 9 year old and a 5 year old. All of us had an amazing time. Omar and Arturo were awesome sailors/hosts/guides making sure they got us to Icacos safely for snorkeling, answered all our questions, taught us about Puerto Rico and even served us delicious drinks and snacks. A really beautiful afternoon/evening with super friendly guides, Omar and Arturo.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

The staff was very friendly. The experience was enjoyable for the whole family. They worked with the children on board to help teach them about sailing and snorkeling.

We have done many snorkeling tour in various places, this tour tops our list. Most “sailing” tours only go to the snorkeling site with the engine running. This tour sailed to and from the beach. We snorkeled at two places and had a two-hour stay on a great beach. Lunch was great and we had plenty to enjoy. I highly recommend Fun Cat Catamaran if you are in Puerto Rico.

We have had a great trip to Puerto Rico and by far, the best thing we’ve done is spent a day on the Fun Cat Catamaran with Capt. Jim and his crew. They were all outstanding!!! The ship was beautiful. The equipment was top notch. The lunch buffet, snacks, and drinks were all delicious. The Pina Coladas were awesome!!! And all of the places we stopped were amazing. Do this tour – you will not be sorry!!!

See what our guests are saying about this tour, the boat ride was scenic, the island was breathtaking.

We had an incredible experience on East island Excursion to Cayo Ikakos ! The boat ride was scenic, the island was breathtaking, and the food was absolutely amazing. Our entire family, including the kids, loved every moment of it. The hospitality was exceptional, and we can’t wait to come back for another memorable trip . Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect getaway!

Keep up the good work.

Recently booked a snorkeling tour to Icacos and it was amazing. The prices were fair and they were able to provide transportation from Viejo San Juan for an additional cost. The crew was amazing and took care of us. They were very attentive and they kept the drinks coming. The water conditions weren’t the best for snorkeling but they did their best to find us s spot. Accessing the beach required to swim from the boat. It wasn’t ideal but made it fun. I intend to book again on my next trip to PR. Next time it’ll be Culebra. Keep up the good work. I would love to hear more reguetón and more Latin music next time.

Fajardo Snorkeling Excursions

Locals’ favorite beaches & islands.

Located on the east coast of the island, Fajardo is right between San Juan and El Yunque Rainforest, so it’s a great place to stay if you’re planning to do many activities around the island on your Puerto Rico vacation. Beyond its convenient location, Fajardo offers many small keys right off the coast with incredible snorkeling. One of the most popular ways to explore is by booking a catamaran snorkeling tour or chartering a boat and visiting several keys in one day. If you’d rather stay on the mainland, there’s great snorkeling to be had at Fajardo’s beaches as well.

Fajardo Snorkeling Beaches & Keys

Set sail to various reefs and islands where you’ll spot tropical fish, sea turtles, and other marine creatures. With so many places to explore, you could spend your whole vacation beach and island-hopping. Most of the choice snorkeling spots are part of La Cordillera Nature Reserve, a chain of about 10 islands that can be reached easily by boat.

Icacos Island

Located just off the coast of Fajardo, Icacos is an uninhabited island with sparkling sand, vibrant, clear waters, and an abundance of marine life, making it the perfect place to go snorkeling or scuba diving. Since it can only be reached by boat, it’s a favorite destination for catamaran snorkeling tours from Fajardo. Enjoy refreshments and gorgeous island views on the sailing trip to the island; then gear up to dive in and explore the impressive coral reef formations. Beyond snorkeling, the beaches of Icacos Island are a wonderful place to spot iguanas and gulls and relax with a drink in hand.

Palomino Island

This is one of the largest islands off the coast of Fajardo, with the eastern side accessible to guests of El Conquistador Resort. You can rent a mini speed boat equipped with snorkeling gear and a cooler with snacks and refreshments and head over to snorkel the reef that surrounds that portion of the island. Although the island can get windy, the beach is somewhat sheltered, making for calm snorkeling conditions. Other popular keys for snorkeling in Fajardo are Cayo Lobos, Cayo Ratones, and Cayo Diablo.

Fajardo Mainland Beaches

For snorkeling closer to your Fajardo hotel or rental, head to the public beach, Playa Seven Seas. This sheltered strip of shoreline can get crowded on the weekends, but it’s a great place to snorkel if you don’t want to take a full-day tour to one of the islands off the coast. El Convento Beach to the west is a nesting ground for sea turtles and home to many breathtaking reefs to explore.

Start planning your Fajardo snorkeling excursion today! Don’t forget to reserve your tours ahead of time, especially if you’re visiting during Puerto Rico’s busy season.
