“Pleasant paddle up a mangrove creek. Arrived half hour early as requested only to be told to come back at start time. Intro, rules, and launch used half hour of 2 hour time. Limited area allowed to paddle coupled with short time means you are probably unlikely to see any dolphins. Next time will probably pay more for longer guided tour with different company that covers more area and gets to visit wrecks. OK for the price but was expecting more (maybe unrealistically).”
