“What a brilliant trip. We were staying near to the harbour and able to walk to the meeting point. The boats crew were all welcoming and friendly. There were padded loungers as well as seats and room for everyone. Unfortunately, we didn't see any whales but plenty of dolphins and 2 large turtles. Having time for a little swim was lovely. The cheese and ham panini was appreciated and there were soft drinks and wine. We did the 3 hour trip and wish we had booked for the five hour. A must do trip and great value for money.”

Trip is well organized, may get bit chilly when the boat is speeding so maybe bring something over shoulders. Really recommended. Our crew Luca and Luis made it really fun experience.”

Based on where you are getting picked up a bus ride of 1.5-2 hours precedes the 2.5 hours boat travel. So, all future travellers, please plan your day accordingly. That being said, it was worth the wait ❤️”
