What people are saying about Trou d'Eau Douce

Had a great time, lots of fun. Only negative things I would have to say is the starting location is not the same as what is listed online. It's not Chez Tino, it's the Ile Aux Cerfs jetty that's a few blocks away. Also online lists the activity as starting at 0815 but we boarded the boat closer to 915-930, just a heads up.
