Sea Rocket

Looking for something faster than a dolphin cruise, or a glass bottom boat? Well then I would recommend the "Sea Rocket". Its' the only tourist speed boat on Pleasure Island. It's family friendly, safe and it's also coast guard approved! While you cruise, there are many sightings of dolphins if the kids are worried about that. The place that does it is located in Sun Harbor Marina, which is next to Tacky Jacks. They have trips that can last only one hour, or even eight! But with trips that can last eight hours, you better reserve it in advance. The number to the place is 251-981-FAST. I hope you get a chance to try out this speed boat, because I myself haven't even been on one before!

Vacation & Exercise

One of the best thing's about being on a vacation, is the fact that your diet won't follow you to your destination. What does that mean? Well I believe that while you're on a vacation, you shouldn't be worrying about a diet, or eating well. But with all of this good seafood down here, you might be feeling a little too full. So if you want to work off those calories and carbs, all the Phoenixes have well equipped gyms! They have cardio machines, and weight lifting machines. Some of them require a key, so before you hit the gym, make sure to head down to the front desk and ask for one. Usually the gyms are by the pool, so after you get back from the gym, a swim is a nice cool down and a way to relax. But if you feel like you didn't lose enough calories, there's always the sauna that are right by the gyms. Hope this helps and you enjoy your vacation!
