“Awesome sunset cruise with Mike and Captain Leo. Highly recommend. They took us out on an amazing sail to a protected manatee area.”

Dec 2024 – Gaineya

“Mike, Leo and Jasmine were awesome. There was 8 of us, 2 kids under 5 and they were so accommodating. Knew all the best spots to see dolphins, manatees and rays. I'd gladly come back and see Mike and the crew.”

Nov 2024 – Kevin M

“The crew, Mike, Henry and Captain Leo were exceptional!They were so genuinely kind and lots of fun! The food they provided was very good and plentiful. The views were beautiful and the crew was helpful and pointing out the manatee, dolphin and different birds. We were a large family with babies all the way to grandparents and everyone had a great time. I totally recommend taking this excursion.”

“This was such a fabulous time! We had a group of 20 family members with kids of all ages, and everyone had a BALL - even with bad weather! We saw several manatees, and even though it was raining off and on and cloudy, it was still beautiful scenery and awesome catamaran! The food was also beyond delicious. But by far, the best part of the entire thing and what made it so special was the crew led by Mike. I've been traveling for 50 years and coming to Belize for the last 20, and I'm pretty sure Mike was the best host I've ever experienced, showing the most attention to customer service to the point where he learned ALL of our names, called us all by names - including the kids down to our 1 year olds - and made sure we were all having the best possible time and never lacked for anything. In an age where customer service is a dying art, good customer service is rare and EXCELLENT customer service is almost extinct, an event led by Mike makes up for it. He's that special. Thank you, Mike and your crew for an unforgettable experience for all of us. I will definitely see you again soon! 🙂”

“If you are looking for a spectacular day on the water with your friends and family then book this trip now! We ended up getting our dates mixed up and were an hour late (after they called and said they were waiting at the pier - cue instant panic) but the staff Mike, Henry, and Leo were patient with us and made sure that our concerns were put at ease and kept reminding us that we are on vacation!! Our drinks never were empty and they made sure that every person on the boat was enjoying themselves. I cannot recommend this crew enough!! We went to Moho Caye and had the best lunch and snorkel adventure.”

Nov 2024 – Shanna L

“We've been out with Nautical Adventures many times and it never disappoints. The service level is top notch 5-star from all the crew. Thinking you want something to drink? It's in your hand before you finish forming the thought. Tired of all the other tours doing chicken, rice and beans? Not this group. Gourmet all the way. Delicious and made fresh, our lunch consisted of ceviche, Greek salad, grilled pork chops, tender chicken, potatoes, and shrimp skewers. Add in the fish we caught on the way out, which was grilled to perfection and delicious. Not a grain of rice, or bean in sight! We were all stuffed. A fresh coconut to quench our thirst and delicious rum punches made the lunch an epicurean delight. The level of service offered by NA is the best. Attentive, fun, entertaining, professional and informative. You couldn't ask for better! With Mike, Capt. Raj and Del(?) you are in great hands with a capable and attentive crew that is so helpful with anything you need. The snorkeling was beautiful and the waters were a bathtub temperature 7 shades of blue. Nurse sharks, skates, bonefish, a spotted eagle ray and all the other beautiful tropical fish added to a stellar day.”

Oct 2024 – Santaforina

“This trip was one in a lifetime. Mike Raj and Jasmine worked diligently to help make sure we were happy 24/7 they made the best rum punch and played our own tunes for us. They even made drink floaters and many shots for us! We will genuinely miss this team”

Oct 2024 – Kelsey P

“We had such an incredible time on our sunset cruise with Mike & Captain Dwayne! The boat was beautiful & so comfortable/safe, our time on the water was smooth sailing and was made so much fun by our host Mike! They provided delicious snacks (above and beyond what we’d expected, including an incredible smoked grouper dip that the owner of the company caught & made himself) and a delicious rum punch! I’ve been on a couple of these sunset cruises in various locations and this was by far the best- a private trip for our group only, so luxurious and easy ♥️”

Sep 2024 – Maringel525

“Absolutely phenomenal experience aboard the YOLO Mike and Captain Dwayne were exceptional hosts, making the trip not only enjoyable but unforgettable. Their hospitality ensured we were always well-fed and, most importantly, never without a drink in hand! We were treated to breathtaking views of marine wildlife and capped the day with a stunning sunset. Couldn’t have asked for better company or a more memorable adventure. Highly recommend!”

Sep 2024 – Edward S

“Husband couldn't ask for a better birthday. Captain Dwayne and Mike are the best. They will meet your every need. A day filled with cautiously swimming with nurse sharks and stingrays, scuba diving and catching fish for lunch.”

Sep 2024 – Kay

“What amazing experience this was. We had the best time with the crew Mike and Captain Chad. They were very knowledgeable and very fun. It was beautiful, relaxing. The food was amazing. Just an all over. Great time thank you very much much.”

Aug 2024 – Karen H

“We went with a private all day sailing. WORTH every penny! YOLO captained by Chris with Mike as our guide made the trip the best it could be. The food was outstanding. We wanted for nothing. Cushions magically appeared before I asked for them and my drink filled like it had no bottom. The best part was the education we received about the Country and the area. The marine life knowledge they had and willingness to share their passion for the sea was icing on the cake. It could not have been better.”

Aug 2024 – Kerrie V

“Aug 24, 2024 not our first trip with Nautical Adventures and definitely will not be our last, they definitely do not disappoint. Captain Chris & Mike do not disappoint. And neither do the owners of this operation. This is a first class operation all the way, and probably our 4th time going on a trip with them. Everytime we go the level of quality & expertise is above expectations. This is a must do in Belize ❤️”

“It's hard to find the words to describe my recent experience on Second Star. All I can say is that it was truly magical. We chartered some of the most pristine waters I have ever seen, which made for some amazing snorkeling and some great pictures. We also got to island hop around some of the islands in Belize which was amazing. Our captain was knowledgeable and filled us in on the history on many of the islands which made the excursions so special. The chef knocked it out of the park! The meals were top tier, and so fresh - Literally ocean to table fish, crab and lobster! I had moments where I felt like I was in a corona commercial. You just have to experience for yourself. 10/10 Highly recommend!!”

Aug 2024 – Mario H

“The whole experience from start to finish was absolutely amazing. Snorkeling, relaxing on the boat, island hopping, phenomenally fresh meals, we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The only downside was leaving, I would have stayed much longer if I would’ve known how great it was going to be!”

Aug 2024 – Elizabeth P

“Jim and Mike were beyond awesome. They trolled for a fish, took us to the coolest island with a huge palm canopy and tons of hammocks, cooked us the fish they caught for lunch with tons of excellent sides and made sure we put our feet up. They were super knowledgeable about all the plants and critters we saw. Couldn’t imagine a more perfect day”

Jun 2024 – Alison H

“We went with a group of 17 and the crew was the absolute best!!! Always made sure we had a full cup. They took us to another island where we swam and they cooked us a large delicious meal. we had some delicious fresh coconuts as well. Definitely recommend, totally with it!!!”

Jun 2024 – Emma W

“Our snorkeling trip with Mike and Captain Jimmy was an awesome experience. There were six of us in our group and Mike spent time with each of us putting us all at ease. My wife is not a very good swimmer and Mike was able to spend time helping her have a very enjoyable experience. While we were snorkeling, Captain Jimmy prepared an outstanding bbq meal for us to enjoy. When we go back, we will be sailing with Mike and Jimmy.”

May 2024 – Dennis M

“We had an amazing time on this excursion. Top notch service! They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we wanted/needed, and were relaxing. Thank you for an INCREDIBLE experience guys!”

May 2024 – Sarah R

“This is a MUST if you are visiting Belize. Jimmy, Mike, and Eric were amazing. The attention to detail and service we experienced on our sail was hands down incredible. They made sure we always had what we needed in the blink of an eye and made us feel like we were sailing with three long time friends not strangers. Not only was the service, sailing, and snorkeling great, but the food was also 10/10. Highly recommended taking this trip and will definitely book again when visiting Belize.”

May 2024 – Hayden G

“Our trip couldn’t have been better. Our team of Captain Jimmy, Mike, and Eric were fantastic. They were funny, attentive, kind, and took care of each person on the boat. Our group decided to go snorkeling at Laughing Bird Caye and the crew kept us safe, cooked us a great meal, and took us to the best snorkeling spots. 10/10 - I couldn’t find a complaint if I tried!”

May 2024 – John C

“We had a fantastic catamaran trip with Captain Jimmy, Mike and Jason. The crew was knowledgeable and entertaining. The food was amazing and their attention to detail took the experience to the next level. I highly recommend as a “Must do”.”

Apr 2024 – Karen M

“Our group of 6 charted YOLO last week for a trip to Boho Caye. I can't begin to tell you what a great idea this was. I've chartered at least 10 boats for trips similar to this. Mike and Cpt Jimmy FAR exceeded the service of all of them put together. Mike is immediately warm and welcoming and you think...he won't be like this all day, right? Wrong. He was. He anticipated what we wanted before we even asked on the boat as well as the island. Cpt Jimmy cooked the most fantastic lunch on the island. I still can't believe I was that excited about chicken...it was the best I've ever had.

It's a little questionable when you see something that has all 5 star reviews. But trust me, if there were more stars available, they would be given! Mike and Jimmy truly made this our favorite day in Belize. If you decide to have a boat day in Placencia, do not look anywhere else. I would bet it will be your favorite day of vacation as well!”

Mar 2024 – Shannon S

“We had the best day with Nautical Adventures Belize. Mike and Jimmy were first class hosts and we wanted to go back the next day but they were already booked. Thanks for the great day Nautical Adventures! #cocunutwater”

Feb 2024 – Christopher K

“We (four couples) went out with Mike and Captain Dean to the Silk Caye and Moho Caye for snorkeling. We had a great time with both of these guys! Mike is a wealth of information, ( he speaks confidently 🙂 and Captain Dean prepared a delicious lunch for us! We saw stingrays, shark and a sea turtle while we were snorkeling! I would highly recommend both these guys!”

Feb 2024 – Kimberly D

“We chartered the luxury yacht “Second Star” for an unforgettable one of a kind vacation to celebrate a milestone birthday. The captain and chef were both amazing. Every meal was spectacular and the yacht was so comfortable and beautifully decorated! We loved all the personal touches throughout our vacation. The Chef took our likes and dislikes into account for every meal and went above and beyond to anticipate our desires! We had such a great time we have already scheduled for next year! Highly recommend!”

Feb 2024 – RyanL99

“Absolutely recommend!!! Mike, Nick and Capt. Jimmy made our day so special. We will definitely book with them again. Can’t wait until next time!!”

Feb 2024 – Jennifer L

“Best day ever on Moho Caye with Jimmy, Mike and Nick! These guys made sure us "mama bears didn't have to be mama bears" for an entire day! They waited on us hand and foot, always keeping our drinks full. Just watch out for the amazing rum punch as it'll catch up to you faster than you realize. 🙂

On the way out to Moho, they kept a fishing rod in the water and caught a yellowtail snapper, which Jimmy added to our very yummy lunch. On the way back in, Nick caught a bonita and made ceviche for a snack on the boat. These guys were so knowledgeable about all things Belize and adventures on the water.

The sailboat was in great condition and I appreciated the communication of the measures taken to ensure our safety. Jimmy was a great captain and cook and stayed amused by our (seven 50-something and two 20-something women) choice of music, singing, and dancing.

I would highly recommend this excursion to anyone looking for a great day of relaxation, leisure, and fun in the sun with 3 great guys!”
Feb 2024 – Kristen H

“Absolutely a fabulous excursion on the YOLO - a beautiful 40 foot catamaran with Captain Jimmy at the helm. Mike was our host and he was the best! Great service, great stories and helped create a wonderful day on the water. I would highly recommend this company.”
Feb 2024 – joebrus1

“We had a beautiful day at Moho Cay with the crew of YOLO! Mike was a perfect host and didn’t let us lift a finger with drinks or food. He even walked beers out to us in the water. Captain Jimmy made some delicious food on the island and was a joy! Jason was a great help in making our day super memorable too! We had plenty of space on the catamaran for the 8 of us. Moho Cay was very chill, you could beach it or swim without crazy crowds.”
Feb 2024 – Debbie B

“Mike, Henry, and Jimmy were amazing. They attended to our every need!! We loved our boat ride and snorkeling experience. The food was amazing too. They were so knowledgeable about the country, the islands, and the history of Belize! Thank you Thank you!”
Feb 2024 – Noelle P

“We LOVED our crew- Jimmy, Henry, Mike! They were so much fun and made our trip into the best day ever! They provided incredible customer service, and made sure our every need was met every moment! The boat was beautiful, and lunch was delicious! We loved our snorkel as well!”
Feb 2024 – Katie L

“The cruise with Mike and Jimmy on the YOLO was such great time! The boat, the cocktails and the service was amazing. We even had a barbecue on an island beach that was absolutely delicious! Our hosts did everything possible to ensure we felt like we were on vacation. We would all give this adventure our highest recommendation!”
Jan 2024 – Lysa A

“A day we did not want to end. From the moment we stepped foot on Cpt. Jimmy’s beautiful catamaran, YOLO, they both not only made us feel welcome but safe. There was not one thing we would have changed or one thing that could have made our day any more perfect! The professionalism and genuine inviting personalities of Mike and Jimmy, the delicious rum drinks served ice cold in yeti mugs and a lunch spread that would make a 5 star hotel need to take notes was just the start. What we thought would be a small beach lunch was a beach feast! Marinaded bbq chicken and pork, shrimp skewers, conch ceviche, fresh coconut water and tossed salad! What?! It was so delicious!
Thank you Mike and Cpt. Jimmy for helping us make one of the best memories! It was a great day🌴❤️🌴”
Jan 2024 – Nikki M

“A group of first time visitors to Belize, but many of us have done Caribbean snorkeling boat charters. We chartered a private boat for our group of 17, it was the best day of our entire trip thanks Mike, Jimmy, Henry, and the entire crew! The Yeti’s stayed full the entire trip and these men just truly went above and beyond. The beach bbq was quite tasty, the laughs plentiful, would definitely book again!”
Jan 2024 – Sylvia M

“Mike and Captain Jimmy, “Captain Cook,” made our day trip to Laughing Bird Caye unforgettable! From the moment we stepped onto the boat, Mike was very attentive to our every need. He made sure we remembered that we were on vacation. The snorkeling was amazing and Mike pointed out many interesting fish, coral, sea urchins, etc. Lunch was the best we have had while on our 9 day vacation in Belize, thanks to Captain Jimmy “Cook”. The boat ride to and from was soooo relaxing! Captain Jimmy let us reel in his catches of Mackerel as a bonus! Highly recommend this adventure! Thanks guys!”
Jan 2024 – John H

“This is a second trip on a catamaran and it never disappoints! The crew was fantastic and went way beyond their efforts to make our trip memorable. If you’re in Placencia, Belize and close to this business please make every effort to schedule a trip with them. IT WILL NOT DISAPPOINT!!!”
Dec 2023 – Mark M

“Our family of 4 (including kids ages 16 and 20) had an EPIC day on the YOLO with Mike and Jimmy. I honestly can’t think of anything that could have been better — the boat is awesome, the scenery (Moho Caye) is stunning, the food (and many beverages!) delicious and most notably the care, spirit and joy of Mike and Jimmy is above and beyond. We felt like we had been transported to a day in Belize with our long lost family. We have traveled to Belize once before and fell in love with the country, culture and people — our son is on the autism spectrum and is universally accepted and celebrated everywhere we go. Mike and Jimmy were the epitome of that. They made sure we made amazing memories that will last a lifetime. A priceless experience and truly epic day!”
Dec 2023 – Jeremy S

“Absolutely great experience! The experience and dedication of the crew was impressive. The whole team worked well together to make sure that everything we wanted or needed was provided for and our drinks were never empty! And the food… absolutely delicious! Captain Jimmy, Mike, and Glen really did an amazing job overall and we will definitely repeat excursions with them in the future.”
Dec 2023 – Chandra H

“My friends and I booked with Nautical Adventures Belize for a birthday celebration. Mike and Captain Jimmy treated us like royalty. We had a wonderful time. Great food, music, and smooth sailing. Highly recommend!”
Nov 2023 – Tatiana M

“Positively amazing day!! The catamaran was gorgeous, the BBQ lunch was delicious and the island beach was stunning. Perfect weather. What else could make it a better day? The crew. Captain Dave is an expert sailor and a great cook! And then there was Mike (not his real name. LOL) who won the the day. He was funny, engaging and a wealth of knowledge of literally everything about the sea and Belize. He had us laughing and joking all day. Best of all he never let us single one of us go thirsty. MORE RUM!! If you go to Belize, make sure you book this excursion. It's worth every cent. And if you see , Mike...tell him the Massholes say hello!”

“Our group of 8 had a GREAT day out on the water with Capitan Dave and Mike. Highlight of our trip to Belize!”

“Do not hesitate. Just book your trip. Amazing boat, amazing staff - great food and drinks and the absolute best people ever to give you an incredible and special day. Five stars all the way. This was my second time with these guys...first time was with my daughters and this time we came back with friends. Counting the minutes until we can do it again. THE BEST experience with the best crew. Thank you, Nautical Adventures!”

“Thanks to Mike, Travis and Captain Jimmy we had the most amazing sail to Moho Cay. They were the best hosts, ensuring we had drinks and snacks and were always smiling. Captain Jimmy also made the most delicious meal while we were at the restaurant island earning his moniker of “ Captain Cook!” Travis was also very attentive and made sure we never were without a drink at any point of the trip. Mike was extremely personable and made our party feel like we had known him for years. To add to an already stellar customer service experience I goofed and left my bag on the sailboat and Mike kindly came out of his way and dropped off my bag to our villa. I am so thankful for his kindness and professionalism. Highly recommend the tour and will be back to sail with Mike and crew again!!!”
Jul 2023 – Nina H

“I came to Belize with a group a friends that I frequently travel with. We always book a day on a boat for our trips and Nautical Adventures did not disappoint. The crew was amazing! Mike, Travis and Jimmy did their best to make sure we had a great time. Not a single detail was overlooked in terms of effort and quality of service. I can’t say enough about the high standard of service we received. They made sure to clearly communicate all details about the sail to Moho Caye, kept drinks flowing, committed to accurately remembering all of our names(there was 10 of us), did the best to make our time snorkeling memorable and provided us with amazing lunch. I could say more but the point is I highly recommend booking with this tour operator!”
