Superb day by boat - A beautiful day with a very friendly and friendly team. We made this sea trip with our little 4 year old who also loved the experience. The meal was good, enough drinks and things to snack on. We recommend it!

Sailing and Beach day - Great relaxing experience. The sail boat is comfortable, the team members are very kind and the beach is very nice.
The program matches the description with 1h or so of navigation until the beach, with fruits and snacks, soft drinks and great fish lunch. Then 1h30 or so sailing back.
We had calmed sea and little wind so navigation was very smooth, we were told some days it can be more agitated.
Overall it was an amazing experience.
100% recommended for a relaxing navigation and beach day.

effortless and well-organized - I previously did the Tayrona by sea tour and decided to try the sailboat experience this time—it was the perfect way to spend the day! It’s a great option if you want a shorter, more relaxed outing and prefer to manage your sun exposure while still enjoying an unforgettable adventure. The sailboat was beautiful, the team was incredibly attentive, and the lunch they prepared was absolutely delicious. The beach was stunning, and the whole experience felt effortless and well-organized. I’ll definitely be back!

Relaxing boat trip and chilling on the beach - Very pleased with the trip. Friendly crew, friendly fellow travellers. Gentle trip out. Arrived at the pretty and quiet beach. Had a lovely afternoon. It started to shower a little as we left but that was ok as the boat has some cover. During the return the crew let out the front sail and it was nice just to hear the sound of the wind and the water.

EXCELLENT!!!! - We had an absolutely spectacular time! Edgar, Michael and Steven were supremely friendly and attentive to everything! We love this experience since it started! My boyfriend was on his birthday and told me that it was the first time he had climbed into one and that he wants to repeat for every time we come to Santa Marta!
The 10/10 team. Experience 10/10 . All 10/10
Thank you very much
(Stephanie helped me a lot and I also thank her infinitely!)

Fine but not great - This trip was fine, not bad but not amazing. The boat is beautiful and the trip to the beach was good. The beach is relatively quiet (with some merchants but they don’t bother you too much. Prices are good for chairs and drinks). The water was calm so good for kids and those just looking to relax. There was a boat nearby playing music which was fine at first but we wanted some peace and quiet after a while. Snorkeling was completely disorganized and not entirely safe. Minimal fish to see. Lunch was fine, not great. They offer beer which come at price (not expensive but not disclosed until you get back to dock). Bring drinks and snacks (they have some but you might want more—we liked having our own water bottles). It says you can’t bring anything but they don’t check. Would I do again? There weren’t many sailing options so I might recommend but I’d be interested in finding something else if other options available—especially for the price.

Nice service amazing day at the beach - Everything was great! Good service (they could be more on it with the drinks), but helpful, good info, etc. Another paddle board would have been good, but overall an amazing experience. Also the way there and back , I felt very safe, even though at times the water was choppy.

Be prepared to be underwhelmed with this motorboat experience. - Because we were going on a sailboat, we expected to sail. On the way out, we had strong winds which would require tacking to get optimal sail angles but the sailboat just motored to the beach with no attempt at sailing. On the way back we had strong cross winds. Instead of putting out the main sail, only the jib was used for show, with the engine continuously motoring along. What a disappointing sailing experience. We were promised an English speaking guide. To our surprise, none of the crew spoke English, and my family of 7, which we paid good money to sail, did not understand anything said. We missed all interpretations, instructions, and everything important. In fact, because of misunderstanding, some missed lunch. The motorboat, which just happened to have rolled up sails, was nice, the crew, despite language problems, tried to help. The beach was fine and snorkeling marginal. By the way, Luis was not on board. Overall a pretty below average experience. We asked for some refund but never heard a response.

Dishonest tour - Went with my friend. The staff didn’t talk to us about the park during the boat ride. They told us we could pay for the drinks with card at the marina but then started walking us to an ATM when we got back. We told them we’d pay with cash that we had in our hotel room. They tried to charge us for Coke bottles, which were supposed to be included. I said I’d pay for the ones I used but not the four unopened ones that they didn’t give us as we had left the boat. They argued with me for a few minutes before finally accepting not to charge us for Coke bottles we hadn’t opened nor taken. My friend and I Googled the conversion for 290,000 COP and got $66.38. We decided to be nice and give them $70. The employee who had followed us then tried to manipulate the calculation, which we immediately rejected. We thought it was all over, but then I got a call from the lobby 20 minutes later that they had returned to try to sell us the bottles. Super creepy. I would not recommend. I will say though that there was one employee who was extremely nice and whom I appreciated and his name was Daniel Alemán. He was great! Everyone else though was either so-so or downright creepy
