Not to be missed

Great, this type of boat is comfortable, safe, and close to the water. The trip is very interesting regarding what we can see of the Basque Corniche. The guide provides cultural information accessible to everyone, just the right amount. The checkpoint where swimming was possible was sublime, and the guide let us enjoy it enough.

The corniche seen from the ocean

Very nice walk, guide too. The possibility of swimming should be posted. Not being informed at the time of booking, several of us were without swimsuits or towels

Day on the water in Basque

It was a wonderful day to see and enjoy the Basque area from the water. We swam in a couple of safe ocean areas that were magical to swim and snorkel. On the way back, the boat’s captain went close to the beach area and we were escorted by a dolphin for a couple of hundred feet. The captain knew the dolphin would be in the area and took his time to locate the dolphin and engage with him. It was a true joy to experience.
