Cholón Island: While incredibly fun, Cholón is a lively "party island" where alcohol consumption is common. It's not suitable for everyone. Your safety regarding any activities undertaken while under the influence of alcohol is your personal responsibility; we are not liable for incidents occurring due to intoxication. Please choose this option wisely based on your preferences.

Personal Belongings: Always keep your valuables with you. We are not responsible for any items lost or left behind on the boat.

Additional Fees: Any entrance fees to additional attractions or extra services you choose are not included in your tour price and are your responsibility to pay directly.

Snorkeling Safety: Our snorkeling activity takes place in deeper waters, not directly from the beach. For your comfort and safety, we highly recommend wearing water shoes and using the provided life vests.

Personal Insurance: While our tour includes basic coverage for minor accidents up to certain limits, it's essential that all travelers have their own comprehensive personal insurance to cover any unforeseen circumstances.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Nothing much to do there. Nice views… but the driver was going so so fast. You had to hold on for dear life to the boat not to fly away.
A fun day island hopping

Jose was a great guide overall we enjoyed the tour. We felt it was a bit disorganised, especially at the beginning of the day waiting on the dock for nearly 1 hour to board the boat. The stop Cholon is very chaotic and dirty and think Playa Blanca is nicer to eat at. It would be nicer to have more time at Playa Blanca and Bomba Tierra - skipping Cholon.
