      We spontaneously booked a tour for the next day at 6:30 a.m. the night before. It was very nice and the team was super nice and cool. We saw a few dolphins and turtles from afar but even if we hadn't seen anything it would have been worth the tour. You are always 2 in a kayak and paddle relatively far out into the sea, so it is quite exhausting, but doable. I would recommend.

      Easy to find the guys at the store, simple laid back explanations, really put us at ease, for people who have not done it before. Easy to get the grip of and just not a 10 because we didn’t see the dolphins but they did promise us another go on another occasion which we will definitely take next time we’re in.

      Great bunch of guys, they were very friendly, patient and aware of what was going on in the group. Made sure everyone was along for the ride. Doug and team were great fun and knowledgeable. Id call out all by name but I dint catch everyones name. Werent able to see any dolphins sadly but that's just something that can happen.
