The parking spot is at the top of the hill and it's quite a hike down to the dock. Definitely could use more directions and possibly a trolley to transport the guests to and from the parking area. Very good experience other than that.

Wonderful time with family! Kayaking in the dark in clear bottom boats with lights was a very cool experience. Saw huge tarpon, stingrays, and green sea turtles. Group leader was fantastic, leading us to all the right places and sharing her knowledge of area and wildlife. Highly recommend!!
