Roller-coaster cruise

The staff was lovely. The sunset cruise doesn't always come with a sunset, which is understandable, can't predict the weather. However, choppy water made it feel more like a rollercoaster. Don't expect much for canapes, if you can stomach them during choppy waters. Lack of lighting while disembarking, made it unsafe as the gap between the boat and ramp was invisible. Use your torch people.

A great way to spend an afternoon

The catamaran ventures from the harbour and then sails in whichever direction the wind takes you. Drinks and canapes are served whilst underway which makes for a very enjoyable experience. The forward area of the boat has seating areas and two over water trampolines if you want to get closer to the waves. The captain and crew are all very professional and easy going. We really enjoyed the sunset cruise experience

Fabulous

Cannot praise this company enough for the way they dealt with an incident involving my husband who ended up having to go to hospital whilst sailing with them.The crew were calm,professional and reassuring.Thank you again to all involved.I then sailed again the day after and had a wonderful day.We had used this company previously and knew how good they were so it was a no brainer for us to use them again.Fab snorkelling out on the reef and a lovely island walk.Finishing off with some lovely food and a few drinks as we sailed back to port was just the most wonderful way to finish my perfect day.🐠🐟🥂

Lovely sail if the weather is conducive.

The staff were extremely accomodating and attentive. It was vey rough ar sea and I question that perhaps the sail should have been cancelled. Several people were seasick and vomiting.. We got wet from waves over the sides of the boat. The ride was very challenging..

Fabulous Early Evening Cruise

We lucked out with the weather. Beautiful calm evening for a sailing experience. The crew were all friendly and helpful. The catamaran was modern and fantastic. Canapés were great and plentiful for our cruise. Only minor complaint was the drinks weren’t super cold. We may have had another drink but for this. Overall a great experience and would recommend.
