Cano Island Adventure with kids - This was a great adventure! We saw humpback whales and a pod of dolphins on our boat ride. In the water we saw turtles, sharks, rays and so many beautiful fish. Our guides were informative and friendly. There is a short break on Cano, which would be a good time to eat snacks you bring yourself. A couple people were sick after the choppy ride, so take your Dramamine before you embark. A beautiful day, I would go again in a heartbeat!
