Activity description

Trusted local pick

We board the catamaran in Jan Thiel and set course for the most beautiful snorkeling spots in the area of Caracas Bay and the Spanish Waters.

Our first stop might be the famous Tugboat, a sunken tugboat completely covered in coral and sponges and surrounded by schools of tropical fish. Other snorkeling spots, such as the Saba wreck, Doggy Beach, or the Caracas Bay pier, are also possible. The exact locations vary daily depending on conditions, and our crew always chooses the best and safest spots.
