This trip made my vacation complete!!!!

I forgot the day we were going so we missed our sailing. Just going to say that this company went above and beyond and squeezed us in 2 days later. We went with Logan, Abby and Nic and they were wonderful! Not sure how Logan did it but we left the dock with light rain and dark clouds, yet he found us sun and light blue water over the most beautiful sandbar I’ve ever seen! We had plenty to eat, the best “special” mimosas and so much fun. The price was worth everything the trip offered. If you are thinking of going, do it! Even my husband who dislikes beaches enjoyed himself.
Response from the operator · daniela c Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled we were able to get you out on the water just two days later and that Logan, Abby, and Nic helped make the day so special. It sounds like you had the perfect sandbar adventure, even with the rainy start!
We’re especially happy to hear that everyone enjoyed the food, special mimosas, beautiful water, and all the fun—and that even your husband, who isn’t a beach fan, had a great time! We’ll be sure to share your kind words with the crew. Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to have you back with us again soon!
