We had a great time on our trip with Billy Bones tours! The Tour company does not have a shop in the Marina, so if you show up a little late, your guide may be looking for you. Do not worry, they will not leave you. Once we got on board, we had a great time. The snorkeling was a nice place to see a lot of fish. The tour was a lot of fun, I think the kids enjoyed the fast boat ride the most. The adults enjoyed the beach time with the floating bar while the sun kissed our faces. Great tour would do it again.
