Should I book snorkel trip now?

We will be leaving in 2 weeks, only for 4 days and this is our first trip. Should I pre-book our snorkel trip or wait until we are there? Can't decide on DePalm, JP or Tranquil. ALso, should I pre-book sunset cruise?

I don't want to tell you how to spend your vacation but do yourself a favor now and book some more days.4DAY'S IS NOT ENOUGH.I do a private trip with Roberto's which is in between the Holiday Inn and the Marriott.Enjoy your vacation

Send a message via Skype™ to Andrea J.
if you want quiet, tranquil and very few or no kids go w/ TRANQUILO

if you want lively and probably some kids go w/ JP

both very reputable

Ditto what DANNYO said about 4 days not being enough. Depending on where you're traveling from, 2 of those 4 days could be eaten up with travel.

Thanks, but that is not including my travel days. Just a week-end get-away. If we decide we like it, then we schedule a longer trip back.

Since you are very limited as to your time I would reserve in advance. First, it is the high season, second, you will be guaranteed of getting the day you want. Probably in the middle no? Not your first or last day when you want to be relaxing on the beach?

If you know what you want to do I would book it now. We had to wait a couple days to do a jeep tour which was fine for us since we had a couple weeks. I wouldn't chance not being able to do it. Although, I'm sure you'll be back ;-) Just sayin'!
