Kayaking - Such an amazing trip!! We were taken to a private beach and island where we had time to look for seashells and even bumped into some scientists who were keeping an eye out for turtle nests and gave us some background information too. Having the clear bottom to the kayak allowed us to check out sea life underneath the water the whole time too. Alessia was a great tour guide!!

Clear kayaking - Raven was amazing!! 10/10 experience. She was very knowledgeable and made me feel super comfortable. She felt like a friend instead of a tour guide as well.
