    Best experience ever. Worth every penny. We learned so much about the ponies and the area from our Captain Fred, who was very laid back, humble and enjoyable to be with. Although he’s a local, he made us feel like family. We saw ponies and dolphins and plenty of birds. We didn’t feel rushed at all. Our party of 3 ended up being the only ones on the 6 person boat! Highly recommend, and will be back.
