Had a lot of fun

Nancy_G, Feb 2024

Was a great experience, I liked the calmer bay to see the sea turtles and then the second location was out further and more of a challenge

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you very much for taking the time to review your experience.

Such a wonderful experience!

Conner is an amazing guide and we had a great time! We saw fish, squids, starfish, turtles and much more! The kayak was awesome and our guide was incredibly patient with us (that kept going to the wrong direction!). Absolutely recommended. Thanks again!
