1.00Taxi came 30mins early at 6am. Waited on the beach on arrival no one knew what was happening. Put onto speed boats. 20 persons as said only allowed 19 persons. The boat ride was good high speed, Just snorkelling in sea. No Life jackets supplied. Didn’t see any dolphins or any other sea life. But did think while on boat we wouldn’t. BBQ ok, but there was no washing facilities I’m sure if Dave to eat!! If just want a sea boat ride & swim in sea, go on trip.. but if want to see dolphins do not go!
Disappointed

2.00Was very poorly organised. Just taken to a deserted beach to a man with a pen and a pad. It looked like we were going to be trafficked. No water as stated. Small boat guide barely spoke English. Appreciate you cannot control nature and they did give it a good try for us to swim with the dolphins but without flippers, way too hard. We thought these may be provided with snorkelling equipment as they have on other trips. Food was pretty good. But all in all not the day we were expecting. When you arrive back there is no one to meet you. You just have to hope your car turns up for the return journey.
Great experience

5.00Well planned activity, We booked this tour only 6 hours before the start time, we were picked up from grand baie by a friendly driver Jay, his driving skills were very good We had the best day ever with some snorkeling and some cocktails by the beach We were told that its our luckyday to see all these dolphins so near. The crew helped us in every way they could. Thank you so much for this wonderful day.

5.00We were picked up at our ship promptly and delivered to the beach for our day on the water. Our two-man crew were great. We visited the dolphins with no rush to leave and then went snorkeling. Afterward we had a great bbq lunch on the beach. Everyone was happy with everything.
