Great kayaking experience with Enrigue! - Enrique was our guide and what an excellent guide he was. A great first briefing, making sure everyone was ok on the trip as well as describing all the wildlife and fauna along the way. He even spotted 3 crocodiles for us.
On the trip back the wind had picked up and the tide was coming in so the going was tougher and my wife and daughter were having a hard time. He tied his kayak to theirs to pull them along. 5 star service all the way!
