5.00Third time I’ve been on Island Time; always a really enjoyable trip. Great if you’re staying at Horseshoe bay; all very easy. Good having such a small group and Drue is always entertaining.

2.00Not as advertised. States "we" a one man small tini, with modern fishing ext , old hand reels only , fishing , catch and release, no fishing to keep as advertised . No social media slowed because your catching fish where you shouldn't be ! Disappointed , was expecting the real deal. Minimal shade on small beat up old tini set up. Expected something more , expected what was written in the promo .

5.00Lovely small tour. Some great snorkeling. Handfishing was nice but not much was caught. Our guide was knowledgeable and we enjoyed the tour immensely. The snacks were basic but perfectly timed and the equipment was in good repair.
