“Bobin was our captain and made the adventure fun with music and commentary! We were unable to swim in blue cave due to traffic and water conditions, but he found another place for those who wanted to take a dip. The spots we stopped were cool but it is a lot of time riding in the boat, so in November bring enough warm layers.”
