The crew

Three captains and a dock in the plaza

The About page lists three captains: Captain Angel, described as the most experienced and the keeper of La Parguera history; Captain Nicole, a La Parguera native and snorkeling specialist; and Captain Brian, an engineer and captain and the newest crew member. The company calls itself a small family-owned business. A Tripadvisor review summary says the captains are a father and his children, which we have not confirmed with the operator. It publishes no founding year.

The operator says its captains and vessels are US Coast Guard approved; we found no license number to confirm that. Reviews mention a sunset sandbar stop before the bay, drinks, snorkels and pool noodles, infant life vests and help for non-swimmers.

“Small family owned business.”
