“Spronk tours was one of the best catamaran tours we have ever taken. Captain Jordan and first mate Giordano made the trip fun and very laid-back. It was really nice being on a boat with a small group of 10 people as opposed to the other tours we saw that would appeared to be 50+ people. They started off with a nice breakfast bite and after snorkeling our lunch break with ribs and chicken and french fries hit the spot! He even let me drive the boat for a minute to get a picture.”
