Under the supervision of certified Snuba guides, divers can explore exotic marine life uninterrupted; there is no need to surface for air or tussle with bulky equipment. After a pre-dive orientation, tour begins from a gently sloping beach and descends to a maximum depth of 20 feet. Divers choose your depth of comfort. « less

We booked the Snuba at Pigeon Island through the Carnival Valor for our honeymoon cruise. AMAZING!! I have always wanted to learn to scuba dive and was surprised I did so well at snuba. It was not hard at all, thanks to great instruction by "Blue Marlin" and our awesome guide "Cocopuffs!" Our underwater camera got water in it and... More

It was the perfect introduction to the underwater world for my children ages 8 & 10 beyond snorkeling. We had a wonderful guide (Judge Judy). Equipment worked well. It was safe and relaxing. We were able to see a small spotted eel, starfish, many colorful fish, different types of coral, octopus, spiny sea urchin and a sea horse!!!!!! As an... More

Staff, equipment and location were all excellent. I just did not personally get on with snuba. The near-constant stream of gas bubbles blasting past my ears made the whole event stressful, I'm sorry to say. Snube is not for everybody.

I also went on this as a cruise excursion and found it very enjoyable - each group was allocated to an experienced guide, in our case Dragon Fish, who sorted our equipment and led us through the water, and made us feel very secure. It is genuinely like scuba diving except that you are connected to your air tank that... More

Great adventure and will remember it forever. Had the chance to interact with the sea life. Up close and personal. Hard to get used to the breathing at first but the guide helped make it work.

SNUBA is the perfect water excursion if you aren't SCUBA certified but you want a bit more than just snorkeling. After a brief explanation of how to use the equipment - really everything is the same as diving with the exception that there is no BC, we entered the water from the beach. The air tanks float above you on... More

My husband and I did this excursion off the Carnival Valor and we're so glad we did! We had been once before in St. Thomas, but we both enjoyed this one more. Judge Judy and Blue Marlin were our guides and Judy was specifically with us. They were very informative both in and out of the water, if that makes... More

Excellent fun, well organised and felt safe during the experience. Coco Puff (not her real name im sure) was an excellent tour guide who showed us the colourful underwater world of St Lucia. Couldnt ask for more.
