Lovely & relaxing - Lovely trip along the coast, the catamaran stopped for a short while & allowed anyone who wanted to swim to do so, the boat kept in touch with other boats when dolphins were spotted, so luckily we did see them. There were drinks and snacks on board, but we didn't buy any so I'm not sure of the prices. Some folk got chilly with the breeze & blankets were offered. Photographer took photos on board which were good quality & a very reasonable price of €5.

Amazing trip (crew A*) - Great trip. Saw dolphins, stingrays and sunfish, as well as beautiful views of the coast. Of course whether you see any animals is down to luck. The crew were great and did their best to make our journey as good as could be. From briefing us on the journey, to handing out blankets (wind), to telling us facts about the animals. The captain is a character and invited the children to take the wheel, and ensured we got the best photos. The crew seemed genuinely excited when sporting dolphins (I’d assumed this would wear off when you do it daily). They were keen to ensure everyone was aware of where they were, and were taking photos of families. I’d read reviews of the boats being packed. Our trip was early October and we went at 1030 so didn’t have this issue, though the trip at midday did appear busier! Thanks for an enjoyable and memorable trip which we all loved.

Worth the trip even if there is no dolphins - I rated 4/5 because we didn’t see the dolphins however it didn’t stop me an my girlfriend from having a fun time got to sit in the captains seat with his hat on good laugh and the staff was very nice Due to not seein any dolphins they issued a discounted price for when we go next times we can have 50% off which was very nice and it doesn’t expire too so not in any rush I would say it’s worth the experience 🫶🙏🇪🇸

Nice tour in good weather, but 1hr too long when its not - To watch dolphins its a great tour but when the sea is a bit rough its not idea for those that cannot handle it as the boat moves slowly to watch dolphins and it wobbles a lot! On my tour several people got sick because of this. Also, in my opinion and from what I saw on the tour, 1hr is more than enough.. the 2nd hour everyone was eager for this this end.

Didn't see anything - Went first time and didn't see any dolphins.. so you can go again half price .. again didn't see any. I asked a member of staff who said , it's probably because the fishing boats aren't around at this time of year, as they drop loads of dead fish back into the ocean ..So not likely to see them .. But they still do the trips !

Caution with cancellation refunds - I got the information on site that the weather conditions are unfavourable and the provider can cancel the event on site for me. But I never received the money. I was informed on site that the weather conditions were unfavorable and that the provider could cancel the event for me on site. However, I never received the money.

Give me a refund please we didnt go on the boat - So we were told that it was not a good day to go out on the boat and were scheduled the next day however we did not want it the next day as we were not going to be in the area. Requested a refund however was told we went. That is not true as we were not in the area. £36 gone and no dolphin photos to show for it. They said we were there but that is impossible.
