Banana Boat - The experience was awesome and so was the captain!! He was fun, paid attention to us and our needs/wants the entire time. Really sped off so fast as soon as we thumbs up 😂 We got to see a small group of dolphins swimming up close while doing the banana boat!!! Was so cool. I appreciate the captain and I believe his name was something Jayjay..

Fun, Sun, and Dolphins with Captain JJ - Thought we were going for just a ride through the waves and it turned out we saw a large pod of dolphins and followed them a bit too. Fun and bouncy ride plus the extra dolphin tour. Our guide Captain JJ was nice, attentive took a few pictures for us. Loved taking off from the beach. We had the best time!
