Paddle boarding in Mexico!My first experience with swimming occurred when I was just 6 weeks old, and it has been difficult to pry me from the water ever since. Unnaturally comfortable holding my breath, I could spend hours snorkeling along the reefs, hovering just above it in a canoe or kayak, or splashing around in the surf. After one particularly bountiful snorkel off the coast of Isla Monserrat, in which I spent the bulk of my time below my fellow cruisers in deeper reefs, I resurfaced next to the zodiac. Our guide, who had also partaken in the snorkel, commented that I looked so comfortable in the water that he had half-expected me to grow gills and a tail. “I should have been a fish,” I told him. He nodded in agreement.
Throughout the week, I was occasionally lured away from the sea by burros and scenic hikes, but I always found my way back to my snorkel and fins. Whenever I travel, I do my best not to journey too far inland. Whether enjoying the company of whales, dolphins, sea lions, starfish, or moral eels, some of my favourite travel memories have occurred in the water.

Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
