Amazing Experience

We went out last week and had the best time. My friend had done her research and we weren't disappointed. Picked up from a meeting point by our hotel, we were dropped right at the boat and had a great 5 hours at sea. There were about 12 of us in total on the boat with plenty of room to move around. The staff team were amazing. We didn't want for anything and had us at ease on the water with lots of local information along the way. We stopped at 3 points to get off the boat to swim. There were plenty of drinks options to keep us going and a fresh barbecue with salad and bread which we all thought was really tasty. Would highly recommend this tour. From start to finish it was fantastic! , Excellent!

BOOK THE CRUISE

Captain & 1st mate were great. We sailed in a very windy day and went through some choppy water. Captain knew exactly what to do and when. The whole crew took great care of everyone on board. They let us dive in the water at each stop. It was super convenient to be picked up at our hotel as well. Sunset view from the boat are unrivaled. , A great experience!

Fantastic trip!

We went for the 5h sunset cruise, and it was a great experience! Everything was well organized. Staff on the boat were kind and helpful, and the food was very delicious! There is a possibility to borrow snorkeling masks. Staff also fed the fish so you could swim with the beautiful fishes. Wonderful experience!
