We LOVE Hector!

Reviewed August 18, 2014

My husband and I were vacationing in San Juan, Puerto Rico with our 3 teenagers . We wanted to go snorkeling but didn't want this activity to take up our entire day. Our hotel concierge highly recommended Hector. Hector was perfect for us! Our snorkeling excursion took about 3 hours, including transportation. Hector was very friendly, punctual, and gave us a great lesson before we embarked to see the coral reefs. The coral reefs and fish were really cool! What we especially loved about Hector was that we met him at a beautiful beach, about 15 minutes from our hotel, and walked right into the water. We didn't have to get on a boat or travel to a marina. Also, for a family of 5, the all day snorkeling tours were quite expensive. Hector was very reasonably priced. The beach, where we met, was absolutely beautiful. We could have stayed there all day. Our entire family loved our snorkeling experience with Hector. We became fast friends! He was great with our kids and very knowledgable. We felt very safe with him too. An all around good guy! We highly recommend him to anyone who in interested in snorkeling in Puerto Rico! P.S. He also gives surf and scuba lessons.

First time snorkeling

Reviewed August 14, 2014

Me and my fiancé arranged to go snorkeling with hector and it was the best experience that we had while we were in Puerto Rico. It was both of out first time going snorkeling and hector was a good teacher. He let us get a feel of the equipment in the water before he took us out. He didn't rush us at all and he was very patient with us. Once we got the hang of it which didn't take long hector took us out into the ocean. He pointed out lots of different things for us to see and explained what the were I even got to hold a sea urchin in my hand. We also got to swim with fish which was cool. He stayed with us the entire time and checked on us to make sure that we were ok and that we weren't tired. When the lesson was over we went back to shore and hector even had fruit for us to eat which I thought was extremely nice. Next time we visit Puerto Rico we will be going snorkeling again with hector. See u next time hector Kimika and Mir

Snorkeling

Hector was a great guide. I took my two young daughters snorkeling for the first time and he was great with them. He was patient when showing them how to snorkel and my daughters appreciated that. Once they got the hang of it, we went out to snorkel and we had a great time. My daughters loved the experience! I will definitely look up Hector the next time I'm in Puerto Rico again. Thanks Hector for a great experience!

Hector was the best, EVER! My sister and I wanted to learn to surf while we were in Puerto Rico. We began our lesson on Friday but a rain storm interrupted us. Hector was very accommodating and let us reschedule for the next morning. He was very attentive and helpful even though I could barely stand up on the board. Thanks so much for your time!!!

Our Visit July 2014

Reviewed July 30, 2014

Just wanted to sent Hector a Thank You from our entire family. Our trip was July 8 to Puerto Rico. And today we still have a wonderful reminder of you. First, let me say what a wonderful person you are for taking the time what such a large group of 8. You made us feel very comfortable in the water during our snorkeling adventure. You had very nice equipment and clean. That was a huge plus. And the reason I say we had a reminder still today. You brought our family the most delicious fruit afterwards. My kids never eat fruit. I have to beg them. But, you encouraged them to try and they loved it. So thank you for giving my family a healthy snack to try and continue to eat. Today, I had to go to the market bc they said Mom can you get the fruit Hector gave us. And they have their friends eating the fruit also.. So thank you again from the bottom of my heart. And I hope and pray your business continues to flourish. See you again my friend, Sophie
