OMG this was my favorite so far. Love that terminal a lot better. That excursion was so much better than Magen’s Bay or Coki Beach, which are too crowded and touristy. Nice footage of the turtle with the two fish swimming along. Thanks for sharing.😎

She rarely brings the flippers because she's a good swimmer, but it does help you go faster with them. I guess all told, we were $30 for the ferry, $10 for the shuttle tips, plus two bushwackers which were about $10 each plus tax, I'd say we made out around $70 all told for the whole day including tips and all. :D
