Marvel at the colorful cliffs as they jut into the turquoise waters. If you’re lucky, you’ll even have the chance to float directly through some of the rocky formations.

Riptide Rides are offered through September, so there’s plenty of time to book your journey. You’ll want to wear a jacket - the water is chilly, and you might get a bit wet!
