Bombastic! - It was a fantastic experience.
Even though the weather was kind of windy and waves were bigger than we would hope for, with Matias as a guide we felt safe and enjoyed jumping over the waves ;)
We heard great stories about Cal Islet and admired the island.
And plus - Matias was accompanied by the cutest furry friend🧡
Highly recommend the trip - as long as you are not afraid to get wet a bit ;)

Beautiful trip to an idyllic place. - Beautiful to view the coast from the other side. How stupid that this has to be 100 characters long. It was clear in just a few words that it was beautiful, right?

beautiful water - The tour was perfect. The guide was a little bit late and there was no briefing about the path we would paddle, but the caves, the view and the color of the water were marvelous. We stopped at Zimbralinho beach for some natural fresh water swimming.
