Glass bottom boat trip to see Turtles?

I really want to see the turtles but don t want to swim! Is it possible to take a trip in a boat where I will be able to see them without going into the water with the option of my husband swimming with them if he wishes?

 

Which is the best beach to see them and roughly how much will it cost?

Last Feb we went to the Boatyard and booked a glass bottom/snorkel tour for $20 each with a beach vendor. They also picked up passengers from other beach clubs (Harbor Lights, Lobster Alive, etc.). Glass bottom boat went over a wreck and then we snorkeled in the area; boat went a short distance and were able to swim with the turtles -- I assume you could see some from the boat rail or via the glass bottom.

 

Boat yard now offers a tour to swim with the turtles as part of it's admission fee - I'm not sure if it has a glass bottom on the boat. Read Mitsugirly's detailed and photo intensive review for details.

 

Taxi to the beach clubs was $5 each - Boatyard included a taxi back to the port as part of its admission fee.
