This tour was absolutely gorgeous and certainly worth every penny! Captain Elio will take you anywhere you want to go in the waters around town. He was so knowledgeable about the history and wildlife of the area. Bonus, he also let’s you pick whatever music you want. Such a great time! Our 5 year old was grinning from ear to ear!
