Did the snorkel tour visit San Pedro AWESOME worth every penny. Capt and mate were great saw so much amazing sea life best snorkle tour we have ever been on... read more and we have been on many.
02/03/2022Great experience with easy booking, departure information and getting photos after our snorkel trip. Our group of 6 did the evening "booze cruise" and a full day snorkel trip... read more as well and Art and his crew were great! The evening booze cruise was relaxing with the rum punch flowing and my husband saying "rum me!" when he needed a refill. The snorkel trip was full of colorful fish, green turtles munching on sea grass and a loggerhead turtle enjoying a lobster. We saw the sharks and rays and Art found a manatee on the way back to the island. The first time snorkelers with us had a great time and were made to feel comfortable in the water. A wonderful time!
07/24/2022We went on 2 separate snorkeling tours from Caye Caulker with "Under the water tours" ( with a creole accent that sounds like Ande De Wata Tours ). Both... read more trips were great. The first was a half day, and the second was a full day.
The half day was perfect way to start since we were tired from traveling, but still wanted to see some amazing underwater life as soon as we arrived on the caye. We were the only 4 on the boat that afternoon, so it was like a private tour, Their boat is fast, and we spent very little time from the dock to the first snorkel site. In fact, we zipped between the 3 destinations, leaving lots of time to snorkel. Colorful fish and coral everywhere. And our guide ( and one of the owners ) Art, is pleasant and patient, as we have different skill levels in our family.
A couple days later we called at 7:30am to see if we could book the full day snorkel trip to Hol Chan Marine Preserve that day. And there was room for the 4 of us. In fact, there were only 2 other people booked for that day, so again, it felt like an almost private tour. While other tour providers had 10-20 people bobbing in the water trying to all stay together, Art had the 6 of us deftly dodging those groups and getting to the good spots away from the crowds.
That full-day trip to Hol Chan was the highlight of our 12 days in Belize. The ocean that day was calm, almost glass, and the underwater rays from the sun bathed the bottom in a rainbow of colors. We saw everything, fish, coral, sting ray, nurse sharks, and turtles. It was the perfect day for our family. With pineapple and rum served-up on the quick ride home.
A couple days later i dropped by the office and within a couple minutes, i had over 200 hi-def photos air-dropped onto my iphone that Art took while we snorkeled.

My friends and I were on a bachelorette party in Belize and we booked our snorkeling excursion through Anda De Wata. Our experience was nothing short of top notch excellent... read more customer service from the time we checked in at the booth and got fitted for gear, to the time we were dropped off at our dock. Captain Art and Xander were both knowledgeable, passionate and courteous and they truly made our experience unforgettable. I loved that they provided free photos with their own gopros and delivered the photos immediately after the excursion ended. I wish Art and Xander could've hung out with our crew for the remainder of the Belize trip. They were that amazing!! Also, Art's wife handled greeting us at the booth and when we took the ferry back to the mainland. I didn't catch her name, but she is also a sweet sweet lady who helped ensure our experience was great!
Overall, if you come to Belize, you MUST book a trip with these guys or else you'll regret it!!

Since my friends and I have a perfect day snorkeling with Anda De Wata Tours, we had to try out the Sunset Tubing. We are sooo glad we did! It... read more was a perfect way to end a hot day by cooling off with a rum punch or three included! Definitely recommend ADW!
07/01/2021I did the full day snorkeling tour for the 2nd time and will continue to use them when I am in Belize. Can't say enough good things about the Captain... read more and guides.
01/25/2022Our diving tour took us to 4 different snorkelling sites including the Conch graveyard, Hol Chan Reserve, shark alley and a part of the reef with turtles. The sites were... read more really special and the best coral and variety of sealife that we have experienced across the world. As an Aussie, I hate to say it but it beats the places we have visited on the Australian Great Barrier Reef! Our guides were friendly and made sure everyone was having a good time. Lunch was also included and for this we went to a restaurant in San Pedro at 'Caliente'. The lunch was typical Mexican fare and just okay Our tour went for nearly 6 hours and would have been longer if it wasn't for a tsunami alert. To make up for coming back early they took us to a section of Caye Caulker where the big Tarpin fish live. You can attract them by dangling your fingers above the water, but you need to have lightning fast reflexes because they will jump up real quick. I got a minor nip on my finger as a result!

We did a half day snorkel with Anda De Water. They let out four year old come and sit on the boat (they even watched her on one so we... read more could both go). It was really brilliant and definitely the highlight of our trip. We swam with sharks, manta ray and all sorts of colourful fish.
07/01/2021Our half day snorkel tour took us to 3 sites in a half day. The crew was very helpful and took good care of those folks who were not the... read more best swimmers. The only things I would object to is that they fed the sharks to get them to come near the boat--I don't know if other tours do that, but it might not be best environmental practice. Also, my husband got seperated from the group and there were so many folks around, he could not see me. Luckily, he found the boat.
02/24/2020Did a half day snorkel tour with this company. If you want the best possible experience, look no further! Both guides were knowledgeable and treated you like family. I feel... read more like they went that extra mile to make sure you got to experience as much as possible in a short period of time. And oh the adventures you will see! I feel like they had a personal touch seldom found when you book a tour. Highly recommend!

I booked two tours with Anda da Wata: night snorkeling and the Hol Chen all day snorkel. Kat and Art were great making sure all the details were taken care... read more of. The night snorkel enabled me to see lobsters and crabs as well as squid, even an eel. The all day trip included a trip to the reef, several snorkels and lunch on San Pedro. Hights included shark alley and the coral reef. The crew were fun and knowledgeable. Definitely would go again
12/01/2021Night snorkeling was incredible! This tour and all of their crew were super accommodating in making a last minute trip happen and truly wanted us to see everything we possibly... read more could "anda da wata" at night. Even after I lagged too far behind and missed seeing two octopuses, my guide was determined to find me one – and he did! RIGHT before we got back on the boat. We saw it all, even surprisingly bioluminescent plankton! Just a forewarning unrelated to the company itself, don't wear a one piece bathing suit – tiny translucent fish that swarm the waters at night, especially around squid, can get stuck in your suit and lead to a traumatizing after-dive shower... But for sure use this company and go night snorkeling! They even take and will send you a bunch of complimentary Go Pro footage!
05/13/2022I can not recommend these guys enough! We did the night snorkel and hol Chan tour. Guides were very knowledgeable, fun, and personable! They really went out... read more of their way to make sure everyone had an amazing experience. Even let my friend and I wear their tshirts in the water when our backs were getting burned! They also take photos of you and the underwater creatures durring the trip and send them to you after so that you don't have to worry about taking photos yourself. Go with these guys! You wont have regrets!

Andy and underwater photographer Didrum were our guides and both very enthusiastic and professional.
Loved it. Highly recommended.
08/22/2019We originally booked a full-day trip, but had to settle for a half-day trip due to a miscommunication about our card being pre-charged and then me not bringing it to... read more the island with us from Belize City. I packed as light as I could for the trip. Any how, all turned out perfect and the half-day trip was perfect. Our guides, Vick and Zander, were very knowledgeable about all of the sea life on the reef and were very patient with a family that joined us on the tour with two small children. The fruit snacks were amazing, the underwater sights were to die for, and teh guide service was top notch! I'd book with this company again in a heart beat!

Most places are still closed due to covid, but we worked with the hotel to put together a group for a snorkel trip. It was a beautiful day on the... read more reef. Everyone — from an experienced diver to a nervous snorkeler — had a wonderful time. The guides were knowledgeable without hovering. There were four stops planned, and our guides added a fifth when they spotted a pair of manatees. Just magical. The price did a full-day trip includes a box lunch, drinks, snacks and a great set of photos dropped to your phone. Highly recommend Anda De Wata.
10/22/2020We did the “booze tube” at sunset and had an ABSOLUTE blast. Easy, reasonably priced, and a fantastic end to any day in Caye Caulker. Rum punch was delicious, sunset... read more was gorgeous, and the experience was delightful. Would absolutely recommend t

Best experience ever! Cpt Chuckie and Tour Guide Art were the absolute best. Art's daughter was our deckhand and she was just the nicest person. The crew was friendly and... read more super accommodating. I was really scared but they all took care of me and were very patient with me and my inexperience. There were several stops and different things to see each time. Shark Ray Alley was the best and the lunch on San Pedro was great. The atmosphere on the boat was always pleasant and the crew was always ready with beverages and we also had fruit for a late snack. To top off a great tour Art did a magnificent job as a cameraman- providing us with pics to seal the memories.
07/01/2021An excellent Snorkeling adventure for my family, that included under water photos without extra cost
10/19/2022This is the second time I’ve done this tour and it was amazing once again! We saw so much wonderful sea life and coral. I think this tour is really... read more unique because it stops for lunch on Ambergris Caye (which is really nice!) and also allows you to download all the photos of the tour into your phone afterwards. Shout out to our captain Artie who was great and super knowledgeable!

03/02/2020Amazing full day tour snorkelling. All equipment included, water and fresh fruits and a yummy lunch in San Pedro. 5 dives with a highlight of shark rat alley. We saw... read more three different types of turtles and also saw stingrays. John and his crew were fantastic explaining everything throughout the day. A definite highlight was getting our pictures at the end of the day which is included in the price. Can highly recommend.

For the $65USD per person you get the best snorkeling trip on the island with a great lunch included. It's BYOB on the boat so I recommend grabbing a bottle... read more of cheap rum and some mixers. They'll provide the cooler. More
07/20/2019All encounters as promised. A special thanks to Cap. Artur, Carlos and the young guy whit the "born to dive" tattoo!! Great experience!!
08/29/2022I have to start by saying that "we" were my 5 years old daughter and myself. It is funny cuz I did not expect to go with that company at... read more all! I had a tour book with a reef friendly company and they choked us in the morning. My little one and I started to walk around and it was fully booked everywhere we asked, or people didn't wanna deal with a 5 years old... And we found Anda De Wata Tour. We were warmly welcomed and we felt the good vibe of the place. So, we did at first the full day snorkeling and I was scared it would be too long for my little one. But with the help of the crew, she did awesome and loved it so much, we came back the next day to do the half day tour. Both days were amazing. They took time to explain everything we were seeing and the guide took my baby with him all the time -- which gave mommy a much appreciated little break 😛 They have a private photographer and he took crazy good pictures. All I can say is thank you Anda De Wata Tour's for two amazing and special day snorkeling. Good memories will for sure stay with us for a very long time. I recommend this company without any hesitation. More
