  • The boat needs some beanbags and paddle boards the chairs are uncomfortable and the mats are great but need some more comfy sitting down options for catching the scenery while cruising and also while hanging out. Really disappointed no paddle boards or kayaks most boat trips have them so come on guys catch up! Other than that it had a good amount of snorkelling/water time loved that as that's what I was there for! It would be a 10 but you don't allow over 35 to do some of the trips. Intrepid does the exact same trips at exactly the same prices but has certian dates that are only for under 35's. I don't like that I'm excluded from certian tour because of my age, it's excluding anyone over 35

  • I had such a good time I told my mom that if the itinerary changes- I?m bringing her on the trip because I had an amazing time and she would too. So I think that sums up how much I enjoyed the trip. I had an amazing time. High and the crew were awesome, couldn?t have asked for better staff. The boat was spacious and lovely. The food was tasty. Truly a memorable trip.
