"Edwin and Giovanni chose a wonderful, shallow spot and guided us through the reef to see a wealth of live coral and marine life. We've snorkeled with several companies on the beach, and this was by far the best experience we've had. We were especially grateful for the refreshing ceviche while we relaxed on the secluded beach. If you're considering a snorkeling trip, I highly recommend La Chulada Tours. They are reasonably priced, communicate excellently throughout, and are always punctual."

"My wife and I had a great time! We caught lots of fish, from tiny yellowtail snappers to a 35-pound amberjack that took a 10-minute fight to land. The captain, who spoke excellent English, knew where the fish were, and we scored at almost every stop. The boat was fairly small but well-equipped with plenty of rods and stabilizers. It was sturdy enough for the job, and we had plenty of room."

"We went on a 4-hour offshore fishing trip and had a fantastic time! The crew was wonderful; they know so much about fishing, it's incredible. I loved listening to their stories!"

"Great day on the fishing and snorkeling boat. 10/10 — Highly recommend. Very friendly. Great fishing. I caught some of the best fish of my life. I did some snorkeling in a beautiful bay with lots of wildlife. I took a nice piece of king mackerel back to a local restaurant where they cooked it for us. I would definitely go with these guys again."

"I can't recommend Carlos and Jovanny of La Chulada Snorkel and Sport Fishing enough. Their professionalism and friendly service made my day. As an inexperienced angler and snorkeling enthusiast, it was an extremely memorable experience. Thanks, guys!"

"An incredible experience! Carlos and his team were fantastic and gave us a unique perspective on the Caribbean. The trip was very personalized; they didn't treat us like typical tourists. They are truly passionate about what they do. The snorkeling was spectacular — we saw turtles, manta rays, lots of fish, starfish, and squid."

"I contacted Carlos directly, and it was great working with him to schedule a fishing trip! We had the best time: great music, excellent ceviche on board, and it was clear to me that they worked hard to provide us with a great experience. They had snorkeling gear and drinks on board. We came home with fish for everyone! Carlos speaks Spanish and English and provided excellent customer service."

"I highly recommend Lachulada Fishing. Carlos and Giovany are very friendly and do everything they can to ensure we have a great trip. Even with challenging conditions, we ended up with two trophy wahoo. Not a huge catch, but the ones we did catch were excellent and memorable. Thanks again, Carlos and Giovany, for everything."

"My kids and I had a blast today with La Chulada. Captain Carlos and his crew really must know all the good spots because we caught two sailfish and three triggerfish during our half-day fishing trip. We also swam with stingrays in a fantastic spot for my kids to swim in. The crew was so friendly and fun. Highly recommended!"

"Carlos and his staff are excellent! They know where to find the best fishing spots, and if snorkeling is your thing, they won't disappoint! The bay they take you to is amazing! Their staff is very attentive, and the ceviche they make is the best! You have to try it! Quality and excellent service are hard to find together."
