Excellent three-hour afternoon cruise to enjoy the sea and the views surrounding the islands. The medium-sized boat and the skilled driver/guide entered the caves, giving us the option to go down to the Blue Lagoon beach or stay on the boat and swim from there! Additionally, the special place they took us to see the sunset.
Thanks for the review!
Excellent trip - highly recommend! The skipper was knowledgeable, inclusive and really friendly. Perfect amount of time on the boat and at stops. Trip was made extra special by seeing dolphins!

Thanks for the review!
It was a fabulous boat trip, skipper was so nice, informative and took us right inside caves, giving everyone lots of opportunity to take fabulous photos. I would highly recommend this trip, excellent value, and Only a brilliant and well organised afternoon out. The waters are crystal clear. Had 3 stops, each about 30 mins which is ample time, so no hanging round trying to kill time. Boat was comfortable and ideal size to get inside caves. A really enjoyable day out,
Thanks for the review!
Superb itinerary on a boat that is neither too large nor too crowded! The skipper was lovely. Top!
Thanks for the review!
A very nice boat ride through crystal clear bright blue water! I so wish there were beaches rather than rock cliffs so that we could have gotten in the water easier. Johnny, the captain was great and I absolutely loved the playlist he used during the ride. The boat was fairly smooth through the water and it was wonderful being on a small group tour. We got to know some people during the tour quite well and exchanged photos with them. The Blue lagoon area was very nice although tourist packed and hard to find a square space to be in but I guess that's to be expected for such a small beach area. Being mid-april the water was still pretty cool but wonderfully refreshing.
Thanks for the great review!
Johnny, the owner and operator of this tour company and boat has 15 years experience hosting these tours, and it shows! He expertly guided us into the caves and coves, beaches and open sea. We felt that we were in expert hands during the entire process. The sights we visited were spectacular, particularly the Crystal Lagoon and the various cliffs, caves and coves. The Blue Lagoon will NOT be the highlight of your tour, I can promise you. Touristy and frankly boring, however some might like it. Thank you once again Johnny for your courtesy and considerations. You have definitely earned your 5 star rating.
Glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for the review!
Just find another operator...not recommending this. They cancel our trip last minute(less than an hour) and we are already at the pick up point. The reason :, bad weather... but it was very sunny and the weather was fine. We manage to book from another operator.
Apologies for the inconvenience caused! We had an internal miss communication and we cancelled later then we should have. It was sunny at that moment but our concern was about rough sea and the safety and enjoyment of our passengers. We'll learn from this and improve!
A very beautiful time spent at sea with the visit of splendid sites! An unforgettable memory and to do absolutely! Thank you to our very nice guides!
Thanks for the review!
Would definitely recommend. Johnny was a fab guide. Blue lagoon is touristy but you can stay on the boat which would be what would do if I went again. Loved the last stop especially Santa Maria Bay is a beautiful beach.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the review!
