An enjoyable afternoon. - Look for the board at the meeting place.
We went out at 1.30 and returned about 4pm. We both enjoyed the journey there and back with a lovely swim quite a way from the beach. Lots of fish swimming around us. Enjoyable all round. We didn't have the hotdogs, but didn't hear any complaints.

Great chilled out trip - Great laid back experience, leisurely trip throughout, good opportunity for swimming but no pressure to get in. No hard sell on drinks and very reasonably priced. Good crew who knew their environment and very chilled but engaging. Highly recommended 👌

Great catamaran cruise! - We had a great afternoon out on the catamaran. The crew were lovely and attentive and clearly explained what to expect. Had a calm cruise around the South Coast and stopped for a swim. The crew provide snorkels which was nice and there were some fish to have a look at.
There's a bar on board where you can purchase soft drinks, beer and wine and you can also buy some hot snacks (fries, hot dogs etc). The prices were very reasonable too.
It was my husband’s birthday and the crew even gave us a couple of shots of honey rum to celebrate!

5 star mini cruise. - This was a lovely boat trip, just the right amount of time! It wasn’t overly busy so we managed to get some nice seats and enjoy the views. The staff were amazing and so friendly! We got a hot dog/chips & drink for €6 and it was lovely. It was a bottle of juice as well so excellent value for money. The crew offered us a shot of honey rum and omggg! This was sooo tasty. We stopped and got a chance to get off the boat for a swim. The water was a bit choppy but still lovely and the views from the water just topped it off. I would definitely recommend this trip if you don’t want to be out on the water all day. Great value for money.

Great relaxing trip but don’t bother with food. - Great trip with flexible booking & friendly staff. Catamaran was uncrowded & easy to move around with good music & drinks. Lovely views of Papagayo beaches and good swimming spot although it was freezing but very refreshing. Food was the only let down tasteless hotdog on stale bread only thing available whilst staff were tucking into some tasty looking sandwiches! Would have given 5 stars otherwise. Forget food or take your own!! Otherwise recommend for relaxing 2-3 hours.

No Papagayo and no sea swim!! - Our skipper brought us to the front of the catamaran to advise us of our itinerary which was to cruise to the South of the island, turn around, briefly stop at Papagayo beach and then move on to the next beach where the catamaran would anchor, they’d lower the ladder and we could have a swim. However we just cruised to the first beach, dropped anchor and the skipper got on a dingy, drive to another catamaran where he picked up another guy and they spent the next hour trying to recover a mooring. We assumed it was some kind of issue and although we were dismayed at being held up an hour, thought we could be in worse places! To our surprise however, when the skipper got back on board we started heading home. I asked him were we not going to Papagayo and his face fell. I think he thought we wouldn’t know any different and would assume the beach we were opposite was it. He then said we would have only stopped briefly at Papagayo briefly anyway. When I asked him why no swim, he said we could have gone in while he was off the boat. I told him no one told us that and anyway they hadn’t lowered any ladder for us to get back on (the other catamaran had their ladder down). He offered us the chance to go back out in the afternoon but we declined as we were meeting friends. All in all very disappointing. Feel we deserved a refund.
