The experience was wonderful, The catamaran itself is lovely. The food and drink was great, but most importantly the staff was kind and informative. Would absolutely recommend this to anybody I know.

This is an amazing trip. The crew are warmly hospitable, knowledgeable and attentive - considerate without being intrusive. The boat is wonderfully comfortable; the food and drink delicious and plentiful. Best of all, the marine life is spectacular and the dolphins even turned and followed us when we moved away after the time the Captain was allowed by law to stay with them. The scenery from the sea is beautiful and for the adventurous the opportunity to swim off the boat was huge fun. It was a little expensive, but absolutely worth every penny. We were even emailed an album of photos from the trip. We will definitely do this again!

The crew were lovely and made this trip so memorable. All drinks and snacks were good quality. We were lucky to see a couple of dolphins and it was all a very chilled not crowded experience. So glad we chose this boat trip

Amazing experience and definitely worth it! We went as a family with our daughter (2 1/2 Years) and they took such good care of us. Especially our daughter had an amazing time. Super child friendly! Highly recommended

Everything about our experience was top quality. The welcome aboard was warm and service excellent throughout. Sea conditions were moderate and we were advised where best to sit; in actual fact we hardly noticed the wind and swell. The boat was not crowded and we had lots of space to spread out. Drinks and nibbles provided were a lovely addition. Everything was properly explained to us and the crew were professional and busy throughout the duration of our sailing. We so enjoyed our time aboard that I’d omitted to mention that unfortunately we didn’t see wales or dolphins. However we’d definitely recommend this excursion and go again ourselves just for fun.

The tour on the boat was just wonderful. We had the chance to see whales and it was so amazing! In addition to the skipper, 2 persons took really good care of us: they were so nice with us and everything was just perfect (food, drinks, information about the whales...). On top of that, the skipper stopped the boat on our way back so that we had a little swim in the ocean. I really recommend this tour.
