Amazing experience
Absolutely fabulous experience, Alberto was an amazing skipper nothing was too much to help , very friendly and informative. The views were incredible and the icing on the cake was pulling into a sheltered bay and snorkeling with the amazing array of fish all around the bay . I did this last year and had the same experience, hence I came back this year . I can't recommend this experiance enough and will definitely do it again next year .

It was ok
It's was ok.
Length of time on the boat was just right. We were offered drinks and snacks but the host lacked warmth/welcome. Swimming off the boat was nice.
However - We were told as we were boarding no toilet!!!!
Atmosphere could've been better. No information/guide of where we were going, what we were seeing. No talk of dolphins, which we understood would be unlikely to see but this wasn't mentioned.
A big issue was the lack of toilet facilities - we were told there would be no toilet as it was broken.
Operator response
Dear customer,
Before every trip, the captain gives a brief safety and boat-operation briefing, in addition to explaining the planned route and the sights along the way. We apologize regarding the restroom issue; it did indeed break down and could not be repaired in time, nor could we notify all customers further in advance. While we understand that a three-hour boat trip with a swimming stop might not be a major inconvenience for most people, this type of mechanical issue is very common due to heavy usage. We prefer to proceed with the trip and continue serving our customers during peak season rather than cancelling. We have taken note of your feedback. Thank you for your input.
Best regards.

Terrible....3 hours from...
Terrible....3 hours from Marina del Este to La Herradura...it takes 15 minutes by kayak.... no dolphins either.. according to the captain, his response about seeing dolphins...they were on a break....a scam...

Hola Raúl,
Sentimos que no hayas disfrutado de la experiencia.
La excursión se hace en un velero, el cual no va a la velocidad de una lancha motora, se trata de disfrutar de la actividad en el mar, con el paisaje de la zona de la punta de la mona, la bahía de la Herradura y los Acantilados de Cerro Gordo
Después habeis disfrutado de una parada para bañaros en una preciosa calita natural de agua turquesa, hacer snorkel y paddle board. En el camino hacia el fondeo navegamos por la zonas protegidas y parque natural que es la zona ms común de avistamiento de delfines, pero esta avisado que no se puede garantizar el ver delfines y si el capitán dijo eso sería para dar un punto de humor al asunto.
Nuevamente te agradecemos tu comentario y sentimos que no lo pasaras bien.
Un saludo

Great excursion
We had booked at very short notice in the late evening of the previous day and were allowed to start this great trip as a threesome. Alberto was super nice, made for us an extra slender, so we had another touching encounter with a dolphin group to the great trip. Highly recommended!!!

A perfect way to spend an afternoon
Alberto was a fantastic skipper and host, so friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The yacht is beautiful and Alberto ensured we were comfortable and drinks and snacks were provided. We saw beautiful scenery and were also lucky enough to spot some dolphins! Highly recommended and well worth the money. Gracias Alberto, we will definitely be back for another trip 🙂⛵

Great way to see the coast!
We had a wonderful sailing outing with Alberto. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. His boat was in great condition and provided some nice snacks and cava. He had snorkeling gear and a paddleboard for a nice time in the water. We did not see dolphins this time of year, but we did not expect that. Overall, I recommend his sailing cruise and 3 hours was perfect.
