Great family outing!
Family Fun Day on June 16, 20266 adults6 children

Captain Mike was so much fun! He took our family of 16 to a great fishing area and was very knowledgeable of the sea life. We caught some cool fish/sharks! His personality was perfect for our family. We had a blast! This was our second year with ecotour and we will definitely be booking again for next year! Great 4 hours on the water! Thanks Mike! So many new memories!
