Everything was perfect. To the young man who met us in the shop and got us on our way, to the changing facilities, to the kayaks, to the delicious hot chocolate, to the scenery, and most of all to our wonderful guide Shay. Thank you for a day we won’t forget. The two D’s from Florida

Great fun, Owen was a super clam and fun guide, actually got to do some good kayaking into caves and not being overly cautious whilst keeping us all safe and together.

The whole team were friendly, informative & fun. When on the water, they were watchful and took great care to station themselves in front of obstructions and sources of potential danger to keep the group. They were full of fun and energy as they shared fascinating facts and history of the area.
