Really friendly crew...
Really friendly crew takes care of the food, drink, and sailing. There are 30 minutes allotted to swimming if you're wanting to do that. This was early September and a lot of folks jumped in.

Awesome way to beat the beach crowd
The facilities were easy to find but plan for a lot of traffic down to the marina. The cost was good to have private boat/swim time without fighting beach crowds. They did move me from an 11am I originally scheduled to 1:30pm. They said I’d get a 2nd free beverage but didn’t remember I suppose. The staff was very friendly. The only other negative was that they did not tell you to bring you own towel. When I asked, before I left my hotel, they hadn’t responded but then had their own towels for sale for €10. They should supply towels I think or let you know in advance to bring.

Good experience, we recommend it

Very nice tour
Due to some not-so-good reviews, we started the event with low expectations. The welcome and the organization were very warm and well organized. The drink selection was good and as a tapa there was a piece of Spanish tortilla. We had a nice spot at the front by the nets and were out for exactly 2 hours. The crowd was pleasant. First we went out onto the sea, the second half we cruised in the harbor area. That was okay, as it was significantly calmer here than in the waves. We had a nice time and would do the trip again.

The staff was very kind....
The staff was very kind. The size of the boat was perfect for the amount of people there was around 18-20 of us but plenty of seating. Smooth sail out to the water and swimming was very nice too!

Great time. The kids really enjoyed it too.

All the passengers had a bad time
They took us out to sail with very large waves. Half of the people vomited and the rest felt really sick. The excursion was sold by Costa Cruises. We could not jump into the water, much less eat anything. Serious: they went out in bad weather just to charge for the excursion. 0 points.

Misleading advertising
This is NOT a private or small group tour. The viator description is misleading. The included Tapas are 1 bite. We have done tours for similar price that was more private and inclusive of drinks and food. I do not recommend this tour at all. The “tour” was a fairly quick boat ride and not worth the money. The captain was not friendly and very rude at the end but the boat hand was great.

Family summer time sailing
Great activity for summer time, traveled with grandparents and 2 kids (8 & 5yrs). Boat ride was nice, great breeze, crew onboard was very nice and attentive. Got to jump in the waters for a bit (there are life vests for the kids), and then headed home. Great experience that will not burn your whole day …and the marina is right by the beach, if you choose to get a bit more time in the sea
