A very pleasant boat trip - I recommend this experience: we visited the coastline and viewed geological features and caves which can only be se seen from the ocean, stopped for a swim and on the way back we were very fortunate to spot the dolphins! The guide, Dani, is very knowledgeable and always searching for sea life. I advise having jackets for the wind/water splashes and proper hats when it's sunny.
