James is great!

We actually missed the first session as we initially booked in for the sunrise kayak but James was super kind to let us join in on the second session. Super cool and interactive guide who gives helpful tips before we get on the water, can never be too careful on water. Would definitely do it next time and be sure to not miss the sunrise 🙏
