Fun water adventure - It was so much fun! For a pair of seniors who have never surfed, it was the closest thing. Our guide/instructor was great. We went out from the beach you can see from the cruise ship, which was really convenient, walking distance.

Fun excursion - Fun experience. Guide was helpful and gave us a “bonus run” when we caught a wave earlier than expected on what was supposed to be our last one.

Amazing experience! - It wasn’t as physically demanding as I imagined, but you will feel it the next day! We had a great guide who gave amazing instructions and was overall very helpful. It was so much fun, and I highly recommend it. Riding the waves was the best part, and we got to do do it several times after we got used to paddling!

Do it - Great experience with ocean paddling! Beautiful weather, surfed about five waves in the hour. I wasn't able to book as a solo traveler because of the size of the canoes. But luckily when I called she kept me on a waiting list and I was able to join another group. Also, the guide was wonderful and kind and kept us informed. Fabulous experience hope to do it again.

Outrigger ride - It was awesome. Krashun( not sure if spelled correctly) was great. He timed the waves just right and we had great wave rides. I would recommend doing the Outrigger!

More than we expected - This was a fun experience. The cove had just enough waves to give us a taste. Neither one of us are physically in shape and we were able to handle the paddling. You do have to be able to paddle quickly and follow directions when the time comes. Worth the money!
