“Overall, we really enjoyed the experience as beginner kayakers. The day goes by very quickly so I recommend having your bathing suit under your clothes ready to go. I also recommend buying the water shoes there or bringing your own as the sand contains pebbles and the rocks may be sharp when snorkeling. You can get by being a beginner at kayaking, but You definitely need to have some athletic and swimming ability to do this excursion so just keep that in mind! The water felt great and it was a beautiful experience. Lunch is a quick sandwich on the beach and then we headed back to the meeting point.…”
