5.00We did a private sunset ride with Captain Marcos and it was fantastic! He made it so we could go shelling and see a few dolphins, double win!!! Plenty of room for our family of 5 on the boat and just overall a great experience, everyone had fun. If we’re in the area again in the future, I would absolutely book with Float Your Boat again.
Great sunset cruise
