June 2026Fantastic tour with a great view of the coast and the caves.
We booked the tour for 3 PM and found it fantastic :) unfortunately, we did not see any dolphins, but that was not a big deal. The feeling of crossing the Atlantic with a view of the beaches was great.

May 2026Very disappointing
No dolphins seen and no cave in either. We received an email a day beforehand that people with poor physical condition could not come because of the weather. On the day itself, a phone call with the same story. Not a word was said about the fact that they were not allowed into the caves. The trip would take 2- 2.5 hours. Exactly after 2 hours we were back on shore. So they could have done a better job of finding dolphins. All in all paid too much money for just a trip at sea.

May 2026Amazing 👏
This cruise was epic!! We had Samuel as our captain and he was sprinting through the waves which was absolutely amazing. I sat in the spot where I got soaked but was totally worth it. It was so much fun - like a water roller coaster. Also managed to see beautiful dolphins and caves. I'd love to do this again.
