Some recent comments about us...

This is an absolute must do! This tour was one of the coolest things we have ever experienced. We saw manatees, multiple fish, a dolphin, the milky way, shooting stars and the Starlink Satellite Train! Amazing!!! Greg's passion and knowledge of our surroundings made it that much more amazing. He was also very attentive to our needs. If you are thinking of this tour, just do it! And don't forget to wear bug spray as the bugs will get you when you are on the beach getting your boards in the water. :)”
