Hailey and Pierre. They were SO nice, and funny and really engaged with us which was awesome! They gave us clear directions and helped us through it. They helped us get on our harnesses to go parasailing. They even dipped our feet in the water (with permission of course!). I would 100% do it again! They helped us on and off the boat,. And they have many payment options which I found helpful. All I can say is I would do it again, and you should do it. And if you get Hailey and Pierre you're lucky! (If the director is reading this give the two of them a raise!) So yes a 5/5 stars would be reasonable for this!

Would definitely recommend to other families and fans of nature.

He has given lessons to my 6 year old who is now obsessed with surfing and my 40 year old husband and the both loved it! He is very patient with any age and can get anyone up on a board. If you rent from him, he is always helpful about what equipment you should use and offers to exchange it if you need to switch up board. Highly recommend Smiley's Surf School, coming from a local you will not regret it!

The horses were not the problem. They are wild animals, and no tour company can control where they…read moreare or what they're doing. We saw about 10 horses, including a family group, and appreciated the opportunity to see them. The problem was the guide, who turned what should have been an exciting wildlife experience into an unpleasant one. From the start, he told us he was tired because he had already done four tours that day and that he would "try." Unfortunately, that lack of enthusiasm was evident throughout the entire tour. Instead of feeling like welcomed guests, we felt like an obligation. The way he interacted with people was especially disappointing. He belittled another guest, spoke to me in a condescending manner when I briefly used bug spray on my neck, and created an atmosphere that felt judgmental rather than educational. Most troubling were his comments dismissing conservation efforts for the very wildlife this tour is built around. A guide leading visitors to see Corolla's wild horses should understand and respect the work that protects these animals and their habitat. This was not a case of unrealistic expectations about wildlife. It was a case of poor guiding, poor communication, and a lack of respect for guests. The horses were beautiful. Unfortunately, the guide made the experience one we will not remember fondly.

Even the most basic obstacles are at least a story off the ground so know that going in. My 8-year-old thought it was such fun but I must say some of the balance obstacles w no edge got me spooked. You cannot pass ppl in front of you so watch who is ahead of you. If slow and scared, be prepared to hold on an obstacle.

I just came along for the ride and helped locate the little guys. At first, it seemed like it would be a project finding them, but every minute it gets darker, you realize you're surrounded. Between the beautiful sunset, kids having a ton of fun, and learning some about the local wildlife (we found a couple pregnant crabs!), it really was a great experience and we'll do it again for sure on our next trip. Fair warning though for my fellow mid-lifers -- if you're not much of a hiker/runner, walking through the sand dunes for a good two hours REALLY left me pretty sore! So plan a dip in the hot tub after if you've got one in the rental. :)
