Serenity Guest Reviews
Guest Comment
“Captain David takes extra special care of his guests and crew on board. David is always willing to teach us along the way whether it’s about sailing, safety, spear fishing, sharing knowledge about the islands, water, marine life, culture… and the list goes on. He is an extremely patient person and is great with kids and adults. He is a good man, who genuinely cares about the people he is around and the ocean/environment he is sailing on.”
