5.00Amazing! Water was very poppy once we got out to the open water, so we came back. However they offered us a refund or a guided boat ride instead. We chose the boat tour and it was so worth it. Tiago was our guide and he amazing as a guide and just so informative about everything. We ate some fresh bananas and had some wine and hung around after just talking. Super experience!

1.00Too bad, we booked to go by kaiac, and three hours earlier they called us that they canceled because of bad weather, told them if they could the next day and told us that neither. Offer us to take a 1-hour boat ride for the 195 euros we pay. We found another Enterprise We went kaiac and found that Enterprise was renting kaiacs and making outings We don't understand why they overruled us, we asked them for explanations and they don't know what to say. Better go to OCEANEYE !!!
Very well supervised and very friendly escorts and reception
