All passengers must arrive at the agency at 7:00 in the morning, where we will prepare everyone with the snorkeling equipment, which includes a short wetsuit, fins and a mask and snorkel.
At 7h30, we will go to the Muelle Acuario I and Zarpe, where you will meet your naturalist guide and we are embarking.
Passengers when arriving at Punta Pitt will carry out their first snorkeling session in Bajo Pitt, the naturalist guide will give you the briefing and then you will launch into the sea. After finishing their first session, passengers will have some time to rest and also have some snacks and drinks.
