Why choose this tour

Most half-day snorkeling trips serve a packed lunch and call it done. This one grills your BBQ fresh on deck at Dam Bay, between two separate snorkeling stops at Hon Tam and Hon Mot — so the meal becomes part of the cruise rather than a break from it, all aboard a distinctive Tiki Hawaii-styled boat.

With snorkeling gear, SUP, entrance fees, and round-trip transportation already included, the day is planned from pickup to drop-off — you just need to bring swimwear, a towel, and sunscreen.

✓ Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the tour starts
✓ Reserve now and pay later — no payment required to lock in your spot
✓ 3 flexible pickup and drop-off points: Nha Trang, Cam Ranh, or Yolo Ocean Camp
✓ Three island spots in one trip: Hon Tam, Dam Bay, and Hon Mot
✓ BBQ lunch grilled fresh onboard, with live relaxing music
✓ High-quality snorkeling equipment and SUP boards provided at no extra cost
✓ Operator-provided insurance for the full day
✓ English- and Vietnamese-speaking guide throughout

Customer reviews

David Jungk ★★★★★

"The BBQ grilled right on the boat was a nice surprise — much better than a packed lunch box. Three good snorkeling spots and the Tiki boat made the whole trip feel different from a typical island tour."

Kah Soon Phang ★★★★★

"Good value for a half-day trip. Equipment, SUP, entrance fees, and transport were all included, so the only thing we paid extra for was jet skiing at Hon Mot. Well organized from start to finish."
