5.00This trip ticked all the boxes, great hosts, so lovely and welcoming, couldn’t do enough to make you feel at ease! We got to see dolphins and turtles in their on environment, which was truly incredible. On the day we went out, it got choppy and a storm started to come in and the decision was made to head back, I thought this was a very sensible idea and we still got to snorkel in safety, you couldn’t see the cliffs once back on shore! Once back had lovely homemade cake and juice. We drove about an hour and half to get there, but totally worth it:))))
BEST BIRTHDAY AND EXCURSION EVER 🥰

5.00I can’t put into words how amazing this day was, it was everything and more I could have wished for. Shangi and his wife sang me happy birthday with a candle and biscuits waiting for me when we got back. If I wasn’t going home I would have done this the next day for the price. I will definitely be doing this again when I come back with my children. We saw so many dolphins I didn’t know where to look at one point, they were just a few metres away from us at one point. It was beautiful being so close to them in their own environment with them choosing to come see us. Shangi told us lots of information about the dolphins and turtles and kept us safe at all times with clear instructions. I looked at lots of trips to do for my birthday and I’m so glad I picked this 1 run by a wonderful family. Definitely a day I will never forget, thank you Shangi and family for the best day EVER 🥰❤️
Nice experience with a nice guide

5.00⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐(⭐) I honestly cannot recommend this company enough. We weren't booked with him but because another kayak team let us down and stranded, he literally walked down the street towards us, with his pre-booked customers in tow, and then took us under his paddle (arm) and saved our day. Shingiy, the operator and tour guide, then gave us the experience of a life time. He was fun, knowledgeable, safety conscious and very enthusiastic about the whole experience. Dolphins galore, turtles a plenty. Thank you Shingiy. From the bottom of our hearts. Lee and Nikki, the stranded couple in the street. X
Highly recommended

Amazing bucket list experience

5.00This was an absolutely fantastic experience which the whole family thoroughly enjoyed. It needs a reasonable level of fitness I would say, because kayaking on the sea is very different from, for example, a river. If you go with younger children, definitely pair the smallest/ less experienced with someone stronger who is capable of kayaking alone if necessary. Everything is very safe though, with life jackets and water provided for your trip and an experienced guide who speaks excellent English. You can lock any valuables in the lockers at the office. It gets quite wet on the kayak, so we left the phone back at the office. This wasn't a problem though because your guide takes photos. We saw multiple dolphins, some just 10-20 metres away and while my daughter and myself didn't see the turtle, my husband and son did. It was incredible to see these amazing creatures in their own environment. Photos from the trip were sent to registered phones by the end of the day. These are people shots of the group, so you just need to go through and delete those of others. It really was a memory making trip that I shall always remember. Huge thanks to our guide, Max.
Great great great!!!!!

5.00Absolutely amazing experience today! Couldn’t rate these guys anymore Our tour guide was max and he was just the best We were out for about roughly 4 hours as we set off a little late. We saw some very playful dolphins and stopped to snorkel and see the sea life around us, my 12 year old daughter couldn’t have had a bigger smile on her face. Honestly if in doubt please go ahead and book. They made us feel welcome and safe and really did give us the best time !!! Thank you
