We had a great time. Crew was fantastic. Saw lots of sea turtles and fish!
Amazing wildlife!
2024/02/19FamiliesSarah
We enjoyed the trip. The staff were helpful, friendly and fun.
We saw loads of sea turtles and enjoyed the sailing out there.
The trip was great for all ages and the equipment was good quality.
We would go again!
Good value and tour
2024/02/17Families with Young ChildrenCal
Good value, tour guides very nice and knowledgeable, made sure everyone was safe and pointed out the sea turtles. The water was a bit murky that day but we still got to see a lot of fish and some sea turtles. The only pa...rt I didn’t like was at the end the guide threw crackers into the water to attract fish so we could get a better view of the fish. This seems like it would be bad for the fish and not sustainable.
