We’ll explore the natural wonders of the area while on our way to a small island where we take a thrilling boat ride to the famous Spandspur Island. There you will be able to relax on the beach and snorkel. Yes, snorkel even if you don’t know how to swim. Everyone will wear a safety vest to keep them afloat. Also if you get nervous just stand up most areas are shallow enough to stand. Sandspur island is the ultimate shallow water snorkeling spot in Biscayne Bay.
