5.00Neither my wife nor I are strong swimmers, but between the floatation belt and huge noodle they provided we felt very safe in the water. That’s what we were most nervous for going into the experience. Beyond that, we saw probably 10 ish turtles with many surfacing throughout the outing. We also got to hold a sea urchin and learn about them. Lots of fish and beautiful water. The crew is very friendly and knowledgeable. Couldn’t recommend this more.
