Fantastic experience - We had a really lovely time on the catamaran. The boat was incredible, and the crew very friendly and attentive. Excellent food and drinks on board. The trip had a range of people and ages, ourselves with a 6 year old, but did not feel crowded at all and there was lots of space on board. The trip itself was great, with some fantastic views, perfect around sunset. We’d definitely do this again.

Relaxation guaranteed - We had a wonderful relaxing sunset cruise. The Captain & Staff were attentive, friendly & helpful. Nothing too much for them to give us the best and memorable experience. The food was also delicious. I highly recommend this cruise on Lara Bella, I would love to do it again.

Pretty good - I had a great time sailing on the catamaran the experience itself was a lot of fun and the staff were very friendly and professional, which I really appreciated. The trip also included a barbecue, which tasted really good, although there was only one type of meat available. However, I personally found the price a bit high for what you get and for the duration of the trip. Even though the duration was clearly stated in advance, I still felt the overall value didn’t fully match the cost.

Beautiful trip on the water with delicious food and wine - Lovely trip on a very large comfortable catamaran. The crew were very friendly, attentive and safety conscious. The drinks were free flowing and reasonably priced. The food was absolutely amazing. Sunset from the boat was worth the trip. Slightly disappointed that they had no white wine by the glass so you had to buy a bottle. A nice trip meandering around the lagoon and out through the knysa heads to the sea. Definitely recommended.
