      Informative

      This is a great short excursion. Very informative about sea life and even have some sea creatures on board for you to touch and hold. The staff was great! Only downside is that your on the boat more than you are out at the island. 30 mins isn’t really enough time to look around or enjoy the private island.

      Response from Host, Jun 2026

      We're so happy to hear you enjoyed the full Eco Cruise experience—from shelling to the touch tank to our knowledgeable crew. They love sharing fun facts and local stories—and they’ll be thrilled to hear your compliments. Thanks for spending time with us on the water!

      Had a great time. If there was a negative, it would have been the i formation shared on boat. I have a little hearing loss, but could not understand the information because of the microphone that was used. Distorted the words a little

      Thank you for joining us and for sharing your feedback! We're glad to hear you had a great time overall.

      Sandals and swimwear are...

      Sandals and swimwear are totally fine. When the ship stopped at the island, the water was very calm and beautiful.

      Response from Host, Jun 2026

      So glad to hear your Eco Cruise was a hit, Ali! We love showing guests the magic of the marsh, getting hands-on with the wildlife and exploring the beautiful beach. Casual, laid-back, and sandal friendly for sure. Thanks for exploring with us!

      Very laid back scenic boat trip and we were able to find a few good shells. Very informative and the tour guide was good at what she does.

      Response from Host, Jun 2026

      Thank you for the kind words, Chantel! We enjoyed exploring the marsh with you. It is true that our crew is passionate about the marsh and all it has to offer, and we’re thrilled that their knowledge made the trip even more enjoyable for you.

      This was a wonderful experience. The boat was clean and there was plenty of room for all the passengers. The presentation was very informative and interesting and getting the opportunity to interact with the sea life was very fun. We learned interesting facts, got to have hands on experiences and had a great time looking for shells! The captain was very knowledgeable and friendly also and answered questions freely, gave great information about boating and shared practical advice and stories. The marine biologist presented information in interesting ways and made sure everyone had the opportunity to interact with the sea life. She answered all questions asked and was very knowledgeable. This was a wonderful, relaxing and informative experience that we enjoyed very much!! We give them a 10 out of 10.
