Customer Reviews
Really fun experience! We enjoyed our trip doing a night kayak tour. The clear bottom boats let us see all the fish swimming and we saw a LOT of fish! Overall I recommend as a great family experience and fun for all!
It’s such a fun night doing night kayaking with our guide Samantha!!! We are the only group tonight and she was so patient waiting for us figuring out how to get there. The tour is extremely fun with her energy and guidance! I have never seen so many fishes surrounding us before. They’re following our lights and jumping around. The breeze and starry sky is so comfy. Everything is perfect!
My husband and I had such an amazing time. Bernard made this entire experience a 10/10! It was fun, unique, and unlike anything we’ve ever done before. At one point, fish were literally jumping into our kayaks! It was completely out of my comfort zone, but I’m so glad we went. Such a cool and unforgettable adventure, highly recommend!
