Fantastic excursion. The catamaran was beautiful, worth paying the extra 5 euros per person for less people and some cushions on the seats. We lots lots of dolphins, got really close but respectful. The staff were great and the bar services were a nice touch and reasonably prices. Totally worth it. We didnt see any whales, but maybe another time.
An all-around good excursion. Well organized, small group on the boat, and snorkeling was also possible with provided goggles!
Very enjoyable boat trip! Very clean and well organised. We were very lucky to see a large pod of whales close up to our boat with two babies. Amazing experience!
Too bad no dolphins or whales!
Nice and helpful staff. We saw dolphins and got to swim on the back. You can buy beavages in bord and the ship has a viewing deck.
Friendly crew, boat in very good condition and comfortable. There isn't really a beautiful view, but the boat is pleasant for sunbathing at sea and seeing a few dolphins. We didn't see any whales, but we did see dolphins. The tour lasts 3 hours. No need to come too early, 15 minutes is enough. Easy to find
It was absolutely great! The crew was super nice, the boat very clean, everything super organized. We were lucky and were able to watch two dolphins for a while. After a swimming break in the sea, we headed back along the coast! Simply top-notch! Gladly again.
Good trip, great team of staff . So friendly. Sadly there was a lot of swell causing sea sickness , they were so kind to me. Even took videos for me.
We were able to see pilot whales, which we liked even better, since you can also see dolphins easily in larger zoos.
Perfect afternoon on a smaller catamaran with around 30 persons which I would highly recommend. Guides were very professional and friendly. We managed to see a pod of pilot whales and a turtle. The boat anchored towards the end so we could all swim as well so towels recommended. Paying bar on board which servers a range of alcoholic drinks, cocktails and soft drinks at reasonable prices. We preferred this catamaran to the bigger busier catamaran as more personal and obviously a lot less people.
