Capt. Isander Santiago gave us a "10-Star" pontoon cruise!!

Sandbar & Dolphins 4hr (AM)5 adults

Capt. Santiago is friendliest host we've ever met (G-Ma, Mother & 3 kids- 13, 15, 19). This tour is great for multi-generations. Capt. Santiago is wealth of marine life knowledge. On 'tritoon', saw Dolphins; a Spotted Manta jump.... Common 'marine area birds'... The history of Cortez fishing ... . Mangrove 'islands' and their marine importance to aquatic life... and beaches. And, more .... Sandbar stops. Provided aquatic experiences than my family ever had. 1. Searching for shells. Capt Santiago is wealth of knowledge about what they found. Sometimes living aquatic animals ('pregnant conch', ... occupied conchs, spider crab, ....)- ALL gently returned to sandbar water home under Santiago directions. 13 & 15yo in a shell territory contest!! 2. Paddleboard. The 13yo had never done it, but in under 10 minutes was solo on standing & paddling. Mom & 15yo went tandem:-) 3. Snorkeling. In advance, 13yo insisted she WANTED to snorkel. None had ever done: Mom & 3 kids tried it. Mom, 19 & 15yo good. The 13yo took to it & kept at it! 4. Motorized Water Propulsion. ALL tried it, and quite popular. 5. Floatpad also used!! My way to relax.
