Really great time - We went on this boat trip it was really good, we saw a turtle and pilot whales but wasn't any dolphins around. Still a great experience the boat was comfortable and had seating in the sun at the front and shaded at the back. Christian our guide was very knowledgeable and was very helpful throughout especially when my wife felt a bit sea sick. Was a great experience and highly recommended.

Our favourite day! - Everything from start to finish was fantastic. The staff who take the bookings are the friendliest people. They could not do enough to make our experience special. Even giving us a bottle of Cava as a gift for an 18th Birthday. We then got on the boat and staff took photos of us before we left the port. The boat trip itself was the best we have ever done. The Captain, Christian, took us out to the area where whales and dolphins typically are. Obviously it can never be guaranteed that you will see anything, but Christian is very knowledgable and experienced and more importantly respectful of marine life. As soon as he saw them from a distance he turned the engine off and we all sat quietly so as not to disturb them. This meant that the whales and dolphins swam right next to our boat, sea turtles too! It was the most amazing, surreal experience. After we went over to the coastline and docked up. We were given snorkel equipment and went for a swim, whilst Christian made us all lunch with drinks. We ate lunch on the boat and Christian was answering all of our questions about marine life, the area etc. We then sailed back along the coastline to the port. The views are stunning! Few tips for a great day - - There are many companies that offer this trip, this was our third time doing this and we loved this company the most. As they only take small groups out, its quieter and you have a higher chance of seeing them. - Get to the gate a little early so you can talk to staff and ask any questions. - Have the photo taken of your family on the boat, it’s a great keepsake. - Sit at the front of the boat if you are prone to sea sickness. - Go for a swim and use the snorkel equipment, the fish we saw were beautiful. Thank you to all the staff for making our day so special!

Nice Trip, Quiet Guide - We enjoyed our experience. The boat was clean and comfortable. We got to see some baby, but not many. No dolphins or turtles, but we understand nothing can be guaranteed. We felt that the guide could have been better. He barely spoke at all, saying very little throughout the trip. It would have been nice if he socialised more and spoke about what we could see.

Lovely trip - Seemed a little underwhelming at first. Small boat. Quiet captain but turned into a lovely trip. Maximum passengers 11. We had 9. Made for a friendly atmosphere. After a while you get an offer of can of pop, beer or wine. When we stopped at the bay, he comes out with ham salad baguettes like mum makes which actually made it more informal. Saw loads of pilot whales and 1 dolphin and turtle. On the way back he raised the sails and for a while you were on the millionaire's yacht. Would recommend!

Great experience - Enjoyable trip, very welcoming staff at the office with good communication prior. Guide was friendly and good at spotting the whales! Music on board was a little on the loud side though which is my only criticism!

Great trip with one minor gripe - Great trip on a lovely boat, and we got to see quite a few pilot whales. The only downside was the snorkels were really old and dirty so we felt we couldn’t use them. Apart from that a nice trip and worth the money.

Honest review - Captain Guy is great. Very friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The boat has very little shade and although you can go below deck that kind defeats the purpose of "whale watching". Also it was advertised as a catamaran and it wasn't and we never got 30 mins snorkelling, more like 10.

Perfunctory - Friendly Well organised. Saw a few pilot whales but felt a little underwhelmed. Did not gain much of an insight about the whales their habitat or conservation efforts if any. Captain was a friendly dude but not much info given so a fairly quiet 40 mins ride out and then back again. I might have missed it but no mention of where life jackets where in case of emergency. Tip if you are looking at these trips was told on our afternoon trip that best time for spotting whales was the morning trip.
