TripAdvisor Review - 24 April 2024
We have just had the most fabulous kayaking experience with guide Brad. We travelled as a family with children - 3, 6 and 8. We did the early morning trip out on the water and saw so many dolphins jumping, swimming and playing next to our kayaks. It was magical. We felt well looked after, clear instructions and good equipment. All the guides were friendly and supportive. I would absolutely recommend.
