Captain Martin runs a top notch organization. He has several boat captains under him. Ours was great.
You should book ahead of time with Captain Martin and do so through your hotel concierge
Our price was $1800 pesos (or $100+) for 2 people on a Sunday for an approx - almost 3 hour boat tour of the nearby Preserve. When you get to town be prepared to be assailed as you enter down on the only road in by would people who want to set you up with a boat tour. This will also happen when you get to the parking lot but if you tell them you have a reservation and it’s with Captain Martin they bid you “Buenas Dias!”
The captain fed the pelicans and the frigate birds, found a crocodile, took us to see the almost pink (depends on time year) salt flat ponds, we snuck up on a flock of flamingos (it was Feb. and they are much more available in May), and took us to “mud” ourselves with white local mudding sand/clay. We ending up on the Gulf beach for a bit to swim. It was a great 1/2 day excursion. 5 stars and HIGHLY recommend. Bring water and sunscreen
