We had a great time on this tour and Jackson did a great job guiding. You do get much wetter than I had anticipated. We were soaked by the time it was over. We saw several dolphins and a sting ray jump out of the water!

Best family excursion we have ever done! Captain Jack was the best!! Fun, challenging enough to make it exhilarating and very memorable! You’ll get wet! ☺️

Love the mini boats. Every time we come down we have to do them. So much fun. Jackson or guide was terrific. Hope to get him again next time.
