Our group booked a two-hour tour for six people. We wound up having extra and had cash to pay him afterwards for the extras. About 15 minutes after leaving the dock, weather moved into the area and the captain made the decision to turn around and return everyone safely to shore. It was terrifying. We crashed into a dock, were drifting around corners. We were unsafe in a lightening storm on the water. We were back on land and in our cars within 40 minutes of the scheduled trip start, and we ended up not getting any of the experience we paid for. What we did get was a terrifying return to dock. Despite that, we still tipped the captain approximately $150 because we appreciated his efforts in getting everyone back safely. If you ask me, that squall was close enough to see on the radar and we never should have left the marina. We were also not given any safety instructions other than "stand at the back of the boat so I can go faster". Following the trip, I contacted the owner and requested a refund since rescheduling was not possible for our group. Half of our party lives out of state, and coordinating the original date was difficult enough. After the first bit of pushback, I specifically asked that all communication remain in writing so there would be a clear record of the discussion. What happened next is why I am leaving this review. A situation that could have been handled professionally and amicably became unnecessarily hostile. During the dispute I was called an "asshole" and a "scam artist" over the phone after previously requesting that communications remain in writing. The refund was eventually issued in full, but the refund documentation I received contained the word "Cunt" in the refund notes. Weather happens. Tours get canceled. Customers ask for refunds. None of that is unusual. What is unusual is the way a repeat customer was treated after spending money with this business for three consecutive seasons. The problem was never the storm. The problem was the response afterward. If you choose to book here, I strongly recommend considering how disagreements might be handled if something goes wrong.

A Bluetooth radio is on board & the motor is quiet enough to hear the music & have conversations. After about 40 minutes we anchored in the low part of the bay near other boats where the captain said we could hop in he water. The depth at that point was only about waist high. Floatation tubes & noodles are also provided on the boat. We hung out there for about another 40 minutes & then it was anchors up. On the return back to the dock we were already planning our next trip on the floating hut with a larger party @ the end of September. The captain said they run till October. They have 2 boats so you can have a larger group split up amongst both of them.
