There be whales here Duffeys! - Brilliant boat trip, well looked after on the boat by the crew. Catamaran is lovely plenty of space to sunbathe or shade for cooling off. All inclusive bar, food it ok but not what you are here for. The views of mont tide and the coast are great but the main attraction is seeing the whales and dolphins in the wild just brilliant 👏 👌.

Top trip...don't hesitate.. - An excellent trip. We saw dolphins and pilot whales and heard their calls via the underwater microphone. Fab paella and plenty of drinks. Toilets on board. Swimming in La Caleta bay for those who wanted. Great commentary, fun crewe. Covered are on deck. Great viewing from the catamaran. Superb value! We would go again.

Great experience! - We had a great time on this catamaran trip! The day we went the water was unfortunately a bit choppy but we still got to see lots of dolphins and stop to swim in a calm spot. The staff were also excellent in helping us with our 1 year old daughter and getting her used to the boat, and the paella and sangria was very good. Plus, you can’t beat the price! The only feedback I’d add is that I wish they had a couple of infant life vests on board for nervous parents. I won’t deduct a star for that though bc they do let you know in advance that they don’t have them and we were able to rent one from the marina.

Fantastic! - Fantastic experience! We saw whales and dolphins, swam in the sea and had a basic but nice meal, unlimited drinks too😁 Gabriel, Sonya and the captain Roberto were great, Gabriel's knowledge was exceptional and Sonya was extra caring to the little ones we had with us, do not miss this catamaran trip, top marks!

Maxicat Morning - Great 3 hours spent on the MaxiCat. Saw the dolphins & whilst the whales were doing their best to hide, the crew weren’t for giving up & waited until one popped up!!
My 3 kids aged 10, 8 & 7 loved it.
Food was paella for adults & chicken nuggets & chips for the kids.
Also enjoyed the swim in the sea at the bay.
All in a good morning spent on the catamaran.

Decent trip, but not perfect though - I booked this operator as I was staying within a short walk from the departure point in Puerto Colon. It also made sense because I felt that it was decent value for money, as drinks and a meal were included. My only criticism was that we set off 16 minutes late, but arrived back on time. The deck was fairly cramped because of the number of guests. Lunch was nice, and cool drinks were welcome in the heat of the day. We saw some whales from a distance, none close up. But we are looking out for wild creatures in their natural habitat so I cannot blame Maxicat for that. Lots of guests were seasick, so I'm not sure how stable this type of large catermarin is. Fortunately, I felt fine for the whole trip.

Sailing, whale watching, swimming. - Not a bad way to spend a few hours. Me my wife and daughter all enjoyed this trip where we seen a large group of pilot whales who were with the the boat for quite some time. After the whale watching we were taken to a bay to swim however as the water was over 10 meteres deep we didn't go in as life jackets are not provide for the swim. All in all an enjoyable trip and I would recommend.

Enjoyable trip seeing the whales in their natural habitat - Really enjoyed the trip! Went with family including 6 year old niece. The staff were just brilliant with her and so friendly. We saw lots of whales and the staff really made the effort to make the experience as enjoyable as possible. The food was ok…rice with bits of chicken through it and chips and chicken nuggets for the kids. The food was cold and I only ate it to be polite! Would still recommend, particularly when the weather is good!

Many whales but no dolphins - We saw a lot of pilot whales! However, we didn't see any dolphins, and they didn't move around too much to find them. We basically took the boat to where the whales were and then headed back. Close to shore, people could swim in the ocean if they wanted. The people were very nice. The lunch was mostly just rice with a tiny bit of chicken.
