Unforgettable experience we loved every minute of it! - An absolutely spectacular ocean boat ride! The views were breathtaking, and we were lucky enough to see dolphins, sea turtles, and schools of fish. The music set the perfect vibe, and the host went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. Highly recommend!

Do NOT Be Misguided.. KNOW what you are paying for... - This was NOT a glass bottom experience. I really should have requested a refund as soon as I noticed that this tour was not as listed. You had to look over the edge of the boat to see the fishes, etc. The gentleman who were in charge of speaking and engaging with the customers were very knowledgeable and kind during the time on the water. Overall nice experience BUT it definitely was NOT what I paid for.
