Exceptional Kayak Experience! I’m so glad I decided to do the sunrise kayaking experience. It was beyond magical :) - After experiencing the afternoon catamaran experience, I knew that I would have to take a sunrise tour in order to capture the beautiful caves without the huge tourist crowds.
From the moment I got there, I felt welcomed and a part of the group. My friend was unable to make it, so I was solo and immediately partnered. Our guide “Fred” was witty, patient and gave an incredible tour with history that was obviously close to his heart. The pictures were captured beautifully. I highly recommend taking the sunrise kayak tour with this group. Worth every penny and one of the many highlights of this magical place!

Setback - Fun catamaran trip with beautiful views of the rocky coast from the sea. However, we just booked a catamaran trip to enjoy a sailing trip in peace. Instead, the entire trip was sailed on the pounding engine because there was a defect on the mast and no sails were raised, an employee said. That could have been reported by the Owner vd catamaran in advance, then we could have booked another shipowner. Nevertheless 3.5 hours sailed on a motorboat at 42,00 euros per person. The "Guide" occasionally talks about the environment through a microphone. However, this is not understood on the front section (trampolines) of the catamaran where most people are located, because the speakers are only under the roof in the middle section. The other 4 crew members hardly interfere with the tourists so no interaction takes place. All in all a nice boat trip in terms of views but we did not get what we paid for.
