More than a glass-bottom window

The boat itself becomes part of the view.

Instead of gathering around one small viewing panel, guests can look through the transparent hull beneath and around them. Children, adults and non-swimmers can enjoy the same underwater-style view while staying comfortably onboard.

Your captain follows the best suitable route for the day. Reef visibility and wildlife sightings change naturally with sunlight, water and sea conditions.

Helpful before you book

Practical clear boat questions.

Have a mobility, comfort or group-specific question? Send it directly to our team.

Ask our team on WhatsApp
Can we see fish without snorkeling?

Yes. The transparent hull is designed for viewing from onboard, making the clear boat a strong choice for non-swimmers and guests who prefer to stay dry. Visibility and sightings vary naturally.

Do guests get off the boat at Iguana Island?

The planned experience includes time around the Iguana Island area, with the exact shoreline access and stop order determined by conditions and captain instructions.

Can young children join the clear boat tour?

Yes. The tour is family-friendly, required life jackets are provided and age-based prices are shown above. A parent or guardian must supervise children throughout the trip.

What should guests with mobility concerns know?

Guests should be able to step on and off the boat with limited assistance. The crew can offer a steady hand when safe but cannot lift or carry guests. Contact us before booking to discuss specific needs.

Can we bring snacks or drinks?

Small snacks and drinks may be brought in non-glass containers. Pack light, avoid messy items near the clear viewing surfaces and follow the crew’s instructions.

How clear will the underwater view be?

Water clarity changes with wind, tide, sunlight and sea conditions. The captain selects the best suitable viewing areas available, but a specific level of visibility cannot be guaranteed.

What happens if weather prevents the tour?

If Clear Wave cancels because conditions are unsafe, guests may move to another available time or receive a refund. Guest cancellations made at least 24 hours before departure receive a full refund unless checkout states otherwise.
