Captain Cody got proven wrong :) - My family of 3 went out with another group of 3 and Captain Cody let us know he had a 100% rate of dunking everyone for the day and our journey would be no different. While I personally ended up in the water multiple times, as did four others, my 11 year old son held on for dear life. He is still talking about how much fun he had and how he proved Captain Cody wrong! We had a great time, thanks a lot Cody!

Look no hands! And…… splash - Great for adventure seeing older kids. Guides were amazing and had fun beside us as they tried successful to flip the kids off the banana. Laughter was abundant! We dialed up the speed and the action, note, guides will go slower / more relaxed too.

Too Much Water Time - The captain was super and assistant were super personable. The problem was that he threw us off the banana boat several times. He did tell us that we would eventually end up in the water but I went in three times! He flipped the whole banana boat the last time so that everyone fell off. With everyone on the water, we all bumped into each other and two people in my party left injured. We also had three kids in our party and although they could all swim, dumping them in 20-30 ft. of water was worrisome.
