It was a great experience! It’s easy to go the wrong way when you’re in the moment so it’s a good idea to follow the map. Be aware when the big boats go by as they will cause waves and it could rock you. You’ll enjoy the ride and view. Max speed was like 15mph so it’s more of a nice cruise.

Dakota was a great fishing guide. Went with my kids 10 and 8 years old. Trout were hit hard by winter storm freeze so we went for red, drifting with drag net in bay. He kept our lines in the water with bait and made sure my kids lines were cast well constantly. He was friendly and was on phone real rime with other boats to keep up with where the fish were. He gave fishing technique tips and guided us on bringing them into the boat. We caught 4 red fish good size and ate them for dinner the next night. Highly recommend.

We played two rooms — Conspiracy and Oz — and both are absolutely fabulous! You’re going to want to play more than one game at Mindtrap, so do as we did and plan to have lunch or an early dinner between playing two rooms, or maybe three. ;) Conspiracy is a tremendously immersive experience with meticulous attention to every detail. You’ll feel like you’re actually in that environment. This escape room, in particular, is excellent for team building: you’ve got to work together to find solutions. Oz is SO MUCH FUN with surprise after surprise from beginning to end. It’s wonderfully creative and filled with unexpected challenges. I wish I could play it again. It makes a perfect choice for teens and even children. Think: next birthday party!

In the winter months manatees make their way to this harbor to bask in the warm waters and feed on the bountiful grasses. With calm flat water and shelter from even the windiest of days it's a perfect spot to enjoy Miami wildlife year-round.

I rented a bike from the Outdoor Center, the attendant was friendly and helpful trying to find the best bike and changing out several saddles to find one angled correctly. The park is great with a variety of trails for different levels of experience. It's amazing to have such a great outdoor activity so close to central Miami. The sporadic views across the bay are an added attraction to the trails. Highly recommended for visitors who want a day away from the city or the busy beaches.

Chase is a great guide and this is a safe and fun way to spend the morning. We didn’t see a ton of wildlife up close but did manage to see a few dolphins and fish jumping in the distance. The motorized raft is fun to drive and can move quicker than you’d think!
