Capt. Mark is awesome. Great guy, happy to show kids (as well as fairly inexperienced adults) the ropes. He is safety-oriented, very knowledgeable, and most importantly, respects the wildlife and their habitat. We all had a great time and the experience was well worth what it cost and then some. THANK YOU!!
