Correct journey

Right, within the expectations I had. To my mind, a lot of people, in little space, but an acceptable experience.

Lovely and relaxing tour

Mariella was a very nice and pleasant lady who made the trip very enjoyable. Although we were not able to see whales it was worth doing it. At least dolphins came along.

What a day. And yes we did get to see a Humpback Whale and her calf. Very special.. The visit to the beach and time out on the water was so relaxing.

Great experience

Excellent trip with great guide and captain, saw mum and baby whale. Well organised and safe, life jackets provided for everyone and boat safety was good. Snorkelling equipment provided was of good standard

Good chance to see whales and dolphins but not today

Guides were lovely and it was great swimming off the boat. We did see a few dolphins but sadly no whales today.
