During July and August, it is best to try and pick early morning or late afternoon times to avoid the heat. Additionally try and pick days that will allow for frequently changing weather. Booking on the last day of your trip may not work out. Captain Dustin and his crew are very flexible and will work with you to ensure you the best experience possible! So what are you waiting for!?
