Had a really good day, enjoyed the experience and would definitely do it again the only down side was the wait to get going as unfortunately not everyone turned up at the time we were told to. So we were sat waiting for an hour. Only reason I gave it 4 stars

We had a fantastic trip with lots of fun ! Crew was so kind and well organised. Miguel spoke FR, GE, POR and English! The bbq was delicious, with meat but also sardines at the end! We loved being on the boat, but also getting into mini ones to access caves. There were also some paddle boards on the beach waiting for us next to the bbq area which was so nice! We will never forget that day!
