We had a blast on the island. We were not aware that we would need to bring all of our beach stuff. And from talking to others on the boat this was a common misconception. Maybe updating the website to include that you can bring these items with you would be beneficial. Even though we were unprepared once arriving on the island we had a wonderful time! Water was great and we found several sand dollar to bring home!

This was a fun & very relaxing trip. We were able to take both of our dogs on the trip. They could play in the water safely & there were lots of sand dollars & shells to find. Captain Dave was an awesome guide. Will do this trip again when we come back.

The ferry was late picking us up from the dock to start with and yet we still had the regular pick up time. It should have been adjusted 20 or so minutes.

The trip is advertised as if you will find a lot of sand dollars. 4 people found 6. Overall a nice trip but advertisements are misleading.
