Keith definitely knows these nice places that he wants you to enjoy and experience... We were very lucky that the weather was so perfect and calm that we were be able to do SUP in the morning, came back for lunch then back out again for some kayaking, snorkeling or swimming... The water is crystal clear as I thought I was swimming in my pool .... for snorkeling you would see all the colorful fishes and pretty corals.... the bonus part was we really enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset every single day while we were on the ship.... the color of the sun was rich and bright .... I have been traveling to Caribbean quite often and this is the trip that I have to say THE BEST trip so far .... If you like water sport and enjoy the water, you should give this a try and you will not be disappointed ... I highly recommend this trip ...

The water was an awesome clear blue which allows you to view a large variety of sea creatures, coral, and gorgeous underwater sights!

The accommodations for sleeping allow for a very peaceful nights reast as you fall asleep listening to the waves! Needless to say I highly recommend this excursion! It is a must for anyone looking for an awesome kayaking excursion or just a peaceful getaway!

I was somewhat impressed with the dolphin tour I went on this morning. Captain Steve and First Mate…read moreJoel were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the wildlife that lives in the bay. During the tour, I saw a handful of dolphins, which made it worth it. I have two complaints about the experience. First, the tour was way too crowded. I had gone on this tour once in the past, and there were about ten people on the boat. This time around, there were 32 people. This made it incredibly difficult to move around the boat to try and spot dolphins. Moreover, all of us were practically sitting on top of one another. The bench seating couldn't accommodate all of us. My other issue with this tour was the lack of shade. Only the back third of the boat was covered, so sitting in the front was incredibly hot. Most of the other pontoon boats we passed were shaded completely. If you're going to go on this dolphin tour, I'd recommend going earlier in the morning. My 10:00 a.m. tour was far too hot and far too crowded. Also, I'd suggest that you wear sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, and clothing that covers your shoulders. If not, prepare to get some sunburn. A full bottle of water or two is also a necessity. Finally, make sure you bring some cash along to tip the captain and first mate.

From there, we went to the airboat before we got to go on the airboat. Addison showed us some different snakes which we got to hold and taught us more about the animals in the area. We had Captain Fred take us out on the airboat. He was also extremely knowledgeable about the animals and fauna of the area. We did this during off-season so we had the boat to ourselves, which was really awesome. Highly suggest to anyone and everyone that they take this tour. The half-day was plenty to us. The full day would've been cool. Maybe that will happen next time. Make sure to ask for Addison and Fred.
