We do recommend you bring a towel, sunscreen (no sprays!) and anything you need to make the trip comfortable.

We are a family friendly boat and our goal is to give the best experience possible to people of all ages and walks of life.
However, passengers of The Magic Merman are loaded from the beach and need to be capable of climbing 3 vertical stairs. Guests will likely get a little wet when beach loading.
Due to the nature of the ocean, our trip is not reccomended for people with back or neck problems, or people recovering from recent surgery. We also don't recommend the trip for pregnant women or children under the age of 5.

During Whale Season (December 15th - April 5th) we can guarantee whale sightings, or you will be welcome back out on a trip for free!
