Great tour to enjoy the beautiful nature while having fun kayaking, with an excellent guide - We were very fortunate with perfect weather, with sightings of several dolphins, different birds, a couple of manatees, and the best of all was having Benjamin as our guide! He is amazing: enthusiastic, positive friendly, arrived well in advance, and on top of that, he spoke good Spanish, which was great because some of my family members didn't speak much English. I'll be booking another tour with FBA next time I will be in the region.

Great sunset dolphin kayak experience! - My husband and I really enjoyed our sunset dolphin kayak tour with Nick! We are baby beginners and have never actually been in a kayak. Our guide was Nick. Nick was responsive and an excellent communicator before the trip, checking our experience and comfort level, updating marine weather conditions, overviewing the trip, and making decisions with us. Upon arrival at the departure site, we were provided clean, high quality sea kayaks, and life jackets. Nick gave an excellent mini-lesson on how to kayak. The trip itself was gorgeous. As we paddled, Nick provided naturalist-level information on the area and animals. We did see quite a few dolphins at close range after paddling across an expanse. We were with a family who seemed to be proficient with their kayaks and did get behind due to our skill level. Nick stayed back with us to make sure we had support if needed. The only suggestion I would make is that it's very difficult to hear what the guide is saying if you even a shortish distance behind him or her. Our hearing is fine. If the guide waits for you to catch up before speaking or repeats the message once you catch up then you can enjoy all the information. Great trip. We would do it again. And we do recommend.
