So we arrived on time, but we needed to wait for some others that were not on time. Then once we got in the water one of the kayaks from the other people went under and then about a few minutes later we started to sink, the dry bag kept nothing dry, and the phone case did nothing to protect the phone because all my contents in my bag was soaking wet and my husband‘s phone, got wet!!

The views over the bay were beautiful! Unfortunately we were unable to see many turtles on the day a the water was cloudy. We didn't mind this as it can't be helped but our guide seemed to want to get it over with as quick as possible!

This was a lovely experience and the guide was great too! The water was so calm and the view was really clear. We got to see the turtles and loads of fishies. Good value for money, would recommend!

Expectations need to be managed. It is overpriced for what it is. would suggest hiring snorkels from harbour lights (for less than half the cost of this tour) and merely walking out into the water for a little way. The submerged boats/ships are very very close to the shore and are not that big. Whilst other reviews say that Nikki was knowledgeable about the sea life, we did not experience this. Merely pointing to a turtle and a sting ray (yes we did see those) is not above the average. And no rum punch as apparently Nikki had run out.

Had an amazing time kayaking around Carlisle bay, seen a few turtles close up and ship wrecks below the glass kayak, great guide who new all the history about them.
Nice finishing touch of rum punch once back on shore, would definitely recommend.

Was brilliant - our tour guide was very chilled and we saw some amazing wildlife - including turtles and stingrays + two amazing shipwrecks!

Our guide was very relaxed and helpful (if rather poor communication!)
Visibility of the sea below the boats was pretty poor - especially when bright conditions (kinda unavoidable!)
We did manage to see some turtles, a ray and a sunken ship, so not all bad.
The Carlisle Bay Area is extremely busy/popular cruise drop off point, so found ourselves having to dodge jet skis, boats and lots of snorkelling people.
If you really want to see the underwater wildlife, I’d recommend a boat trip to either snorkel or scuba.
I’d read similar reviews beforehand about the clear kayaks and felt would be useful to be honest about our experience not being what we’d hoped for.
