Was a great trip plenty... - Was a great trip plenty of choice of drinks on board with added bonus of seeing loads of dolphins 🐬 staff were really nice only thing I'd suggest is making the trip longer and serve a cold or hot buffet on board would make a great trip into a spectacular trip

Meh - The catamaran in use was the “sea princess , not like the one in the picture. Also, compared to other catamaran trips we’ve taken from the waterfront , we were told our 10 and 12 year old kids had to stay inside the cabin, and not use the outside decks.
