Amazing day at sea!

This island tour was such an incredible experience! It was fun to wake up early, and spend the whole day at sea. We were lucky enough the have the best captain, Ela, and tour guide, Nina! This duo made the experience exceptional. They play super fun music, making the boat rides between the stops just as fun as the locations themselves! Note: wear sturdy water shoes because the beaches at all the islands are very rocky.
