Good to know
This works well for families, small celebration groups (birthdays, proposals), and anyone wanting a private, flexible boat experience without the constraints of a large-group tour. The boat suits all fitness levels — you can be as active or as relaxed as you prefer. Bring sunscreen and wear swimwear if you plan to swim; the Gulf waters are warm but changeable. The boat operates in local waterways, so weather can affect routing and comfort — check conditions before booking. Gratuity for the captain isn't included in the price. Public transport options exist nearby if you're not driving. Maximum 10 passengers per booking keeps the experience intimate.
