A great way to spend the day. Our guide on the glass bottom boat was friendly and enthusiastic. An educational experience for young and old. Recommend the glass bottom boat.
My daughter got this experience for me as a gift for both of us. The experience was fantastic. It was interesting and informative seeing different species.
This was totally amazing!! One of the best things I've done.
