5.00Pleasant and we will repeat a day that the tide allows us to get down to Santa Clara Island. We passed very close to everything. Very good experience as there were a few waves of film. The captain and the sailor have been impeccable.
A real beautiful pass

5.00It's been very nice, it's getting very short. It is wonderful to see Donostia from the sea next to the island of Santa Clara, plus we were lucky enough to see a family of dolphins and the skipper of the boat was taking us to see them, he threw the roll a lot. Congratulations to the whole team. We will repeat and recommend without hesitation. Thank you.
Great for €8

We walked around the small island for a bit and then took the next boat back. We had fabulous weather. Definitely worth it on a beautiful day.
