5.00We had a really wonderful trip today. Water was choppy but sun was shining and Cater and Katie were great. Very professional and navigated us to see loads of dolphins! We were surrounded it was amazing! Honestly one of the best value trips I have done in a long time! I would have booked another available slot later in the afternoon but we didn’t have time. I would highly recommend.
