Recommended. - 3-hour excursion. At first it was a bit difficult but in the end we saw dolphins and pilot whales. Very friendly staff. I recommend a jacket and be careful with dizziness. Before finishing there was a swim in the sea (not suitable for those with colds) and a free drink. It's amazing to see these animals in the wild. Recommended.

Great tour! - Great boat trip on a catamaran. Drinks on board for free. No dolphins, money back or voucher. Especially dolphins considering both the pilot whales and the beak, it was so nice how they actually came to say hello! The crew sailed very slowly out of respect. Also spotted a flying fish along the way. The Atlantic Ocean can be quite wild, so if you have a sensitive stomach you may become seasick. We are not happy. But definitely recommended, had a great afternoon!

Great trip - The crew were great and made sure we had a great view of the dolphins a number of times on the trip out and back. We saw several pods, the largest being probably 30 dolphins.

nice boat trip - The dolphins remained out of sight on the first trip, but we received a voucher that we redeemed for a few days and were able to spot dolphins

Just good! - Very pleasant reception (both before and on the boat). Different languages are spoken so that everyone could understand the explanation. We also regularly check how you are doing. There is drinks on board and a toilet. Staff on this trip were very friendly. We spotted dolphins and they treat nature with respect! Very nice. In addition, the boat was turned regularly so that you did not have to run back and forth on the boat. Highly recommended!

Great but gutsy - A lovely experience. Was picked up promptly and queued to get on the boat. Recommend taking sickness tablets or sitting on the bottom floor as it is rocky despite very good weather conditions. A lot of children being sick! Saw so many dolphins and even a turtle! No whale

Didn't see any dolphins or whales. Not recommended. Waste of time. Never again. - We didn't see any whales or dolphins, but we were rocked back and forth on the sea for 3 hours. Several passengers had to throw up. The boat was so overbooked that we had to sit in the disabled seats. The snacks were limited to a small bag of chips (for a fee). There was also no alternative entertainment or information program during this time. A complete waste of time. No possibility of watching anything underwater through a window or anything like that. Bad luck🤷‍♂️ Completely overrated. Never again.
