5.00We had the pleasure of meeting Alex and Ava on this adventure- they were the best!! They both are so kind, and both very knowledgeable about the location and any questions we had. Ava was super quick to get everyone drinks and chips and Alex was super funny as well as helpful getting on and off the boat. We had a passenger that got on the wrong boat after snorkeling, and Alex even went into the water to find her. Would definitely recommend! When we come back here, this is where we will go!
Awesome Valentines Day!
