Bobby was absolutely amazing! We were eating next door at the fish market and stopped in to ask advice on snorkel masks, he was more than happy to help and even helped us with our snorkels we had already bought on the mainland. He has some amazing local goods and is an amazing person! 12/10 would recommend stopping by.

Bobby and Joey are amazing people. They teach you how to free dive first before you go out and try and spear a fish. But when your out there Joey really helped me settle in and calm down. Absolutely epic experience. I’ll be back again next year with these solid fellas. Take your kids these dudes are rad people!!
