4 Hour – Morning Sandbar Trip
What a fantastic experience we had. My family and I decided to book this somewhat last minute, they had availability and we’re eager to get us on the water. They called us to ask if we had any flexibility with our schedule which we did in case of the weather, but we didn’t need to change our original plan. Our 5 & 7 year old had the time of their lives! The captain was great, informative & extremely froendly. The whole day was awesome. We found some amazing shells and can’t wait to book a tour for our next vacation! Thank you to Captain Cliff for an extraordinary adventure, and to Colby for allowing him to take us out!
