5.00I am incredibly grateful to the captain and crew for making this such a memorable experience. They were exceptionally thoughtful and went out of their way to ensure everyone felt welcome, comfortable, and happy throughout the day. We had the opportunity to stop five times to swim and enjoy the crystal-clear sea, which made the trip even more special. The delicious lunch spread they prepared was outstanding, and the snacks provided throughout the day were a wonderful touch. I can’t thank them enough and would highly recommend this tour to all of my friends and family.

4.00A great time, wonderful stops for a decent abmout of time, great people, though far too many people on the boat itself (I think because it had been cancelled a previous day because of winds and so everyone was put on board this one boat the next day). Overall I would do it again.
Overall a great...
