5.00Great experience with Cody and James. We had a great cruise and seeing the bio was definitely something that needs to be on your list. The boat was very clean and crew very professional and informational. Great trip for families. While the pictures are a little blurry, seeing it in person was awesome.
Great end to the trip and amazing experience!

5.00We were a little early and they were there. Dion was our captain, did a great job. We were a little nervous heading out in the dark to the unknown. A little scary getting in but it was amazing! Great end to our trip. For a group of six the private boat was perfect!
Great experience!

5.00This experience exceeded expectations. We met Captain James, who was punctual in his arrival. The boat was clean and had beverages and a nice sound system. We thought we were just going to the bioluminescence tour, but we had actually booked a 3 hour tour. We had already experienced a few of the places on the tour, so James pivoted to a custom tour of spots he thought we'd like. We went to a small beach restaurant for drinks and some beach soccer, we went to a private island for sunset, and then headed over to bioluminescence bay, which was incredible. They did a great job of making pivoting for us and making in an awesome experience. Highly recommend.
Great excursion for the family!

5.00So cool to see! Went with 3 teenage kids and all had a great time. Recommend the later session as we were the only ones in the bay. Saw a large turtle as well that looked like something out of the movie avatar when she swam away!! Guide was friendly and knowledgeable.

5.00The ride over in healthy chop in the dark was a bit unnerving for our other coupe but we were safe and the night skies are amazing! When reached the bioluminescent bay, it was easy to get out and in the boat splashing around like kids with sparklers tied to our arms and legs. We had couple beers while drying off and the trip was more relaxed.
