20 tours · €35–€818 per person · ★ 4.8
Snorkeling in Puerto Rico comes in two sizes, and the 20 trips here were picked by hand from listings rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €35 per person for a guided turtle snorkel straight off a San Juan beach, gear and a free video included, to €818 for a private day that adds a sunset and a bioluminescent bay. Between them sit the snorkeling trips in Puerto Rico that leave from Fajardo: boats to Icacos, Culebra or Vieques with reef stops, a beach, lunch and rum drinks, plus a helmet walk for anyone who skips the snorkel.
A quick way to choose: the beach turtle snorkels take an hour and a half, ask you to be comfortable in the water and set a minimum age, so they fit a free morning; the island boats take most of a day, want you at a marina an hour east of San Juan early, and some add charges below a passenger minimum. Gratuities are extra almost everywhere and hotel pickup is rare. The best reviewed snorkeling tours in Puerto Rico come first below.
