What do I need to bring with me?This is our most common question! We will go over this in detail before your trip! First and foremost, we always recomend sunblock. Whether its 3 hours or a full day, sunblock is essential! Change of clothes- You will be out in the elements, either sweating, swimming, etc. It is really nice to have a change of clothes to jump into after a fun day! Rain jacket- Especially in rainy season, it is nice to have something to protect from a rain shower! Jacket- It is also nice to have a pullvoer of some kind. It can get very hot out there, but it can also get cold at times when the boat is running fast! We also recomend long sleeves and having as much to cover yourself as possible so you do not get burned! Food/drink- If what we discuss with you is not enough, you want something different that we cannot provide, please bring along any extra food or drink! We will gladly add it to our cooler.
-
Does Victor Speak English?Yes! We would argue that Victor speaks the best English of any captain in the area! He is completely fluent in English.
-
Can I bring my kids? Is the boat kid friendly?Yes! Victor loves having kids on board! In fact, he has a 1 year old and a 6 year old himself. Some of our happiest customers took their small kids out (anywhere from 6 months to 8 years old). Many guests still keep in touch with Victor, and still allude to their day on the water as an unforgettable bonding experience for them and their kids!
