Great app deleted my entire review lol
First of all I spent about the same on this all day trip as I did snorkeling for a few hours in the bay, and coffee was $3 food cost 20$ but I split it with my girl and we got some extra chicken from papa p.

Was a good time it rained and still had fun went to 5 beaches 5 local business areas in my opinion the driver definitely makes the trip fun or not he did a good job gave me food and drinks multiple times his wife’s mac salad was amazing I forgot her name but it had raisins in it and she deserves recognition as well good time for sure
