“Great marine life & flexibility - This is a small boat with no bathroom or food but it was comfortable. A great ladder to get in and out of the water. Aldolpho and Jonny were nice and great at spotting marine life. We loved the flexibility of doing what we want. Saw turtles (including mating), humpbacks, dolphins and a huge school of rays (spotted eagle?) Jumping and slapping!” - Reviewed at 2025-01-29
