It was a very fun experience, and we were able to see lots of dolphins and fish in large numbers. Zaza was the best instructor, make sure to tip him.

The staff on board were very kind and helpful, and the instructors were well trained. It was a wonderful day overall, even though we didn’t manage to see any dolphins (which can sometimes happen).

We highly recommend this trip. Everything was five stars: the transfer, the care on the boat, the professional snorkeling equipment, and the very friendly atmosphere. The lunch was also delicious. It was a very well-spent day.
