I had car issues and I arrived late and Mike worked with me and was super understanding . However I spent $75 for 3 people and it was not worth 25 a piece maybe 10 or 15 didn’t see a single animal and the trip was literally 20 minutes. Parking sucked get there early to avoid walking a distance. Otherwise super easy trip I don’t feel like it was worth $75.

Mike is super sweet! He was very knowledgeable about the area and had dry bags for our stuff as well as a map with common wildlife.

Location was easy to find and everything was set up for us when we got there. Mike gave us clear instructions and the map was easy to follow. We booked the kayaks for a full day and spent about 3.5 hours paddling around and going to the beach. There was plenty of room on the kayaks for our dry bag and a small soft sided cooler.
