This Captain sends a water taxi to pick you up on the beach. We stayed at the Marriott, walked 3 minutes from our room to the beach, and were picked up at 6:00 am by the water taxi. Unbelievably convenient!

Yes. It's a beautiful location and there seems to be an abundance of wildlife in the waters (we saw several dolphin pods).

This is a great entry level charter. The crew are very good and experienced. The boat is smaller and more manoeuvrable. It does allow for a more open air experience but lacks a comfort that larger boats offer.

We are from Texas and the heat was fine, but the sun is harsh here so long sleeves and good hats are a must!
