TIP: During the winter months it is a good idea to plan your excursion earlier in your vacation so that you can reschedule if need be!

Our boat is small with limited seating. If you or any of your party weigh over 250 pounds, please call us so that we can accommodate your party.

ARE THERE ANY OTHER RESTRICTIONS?
If you have severe and/or chronic back and neck pain, we do not recommend this excursion. You should also be able to step into and out of the vessel which is a step of about 1 &1/2 feet. We do have a small step to assist you if need be.
