Lovely boat trip - I wasn't really looking forward to it as the weather wasn't that great and wondered if they would still sail, but we did and it was brilliant. There was only 15 of us on board and as soon as we got out of the port the weather was lovely. All staff were great, you couldn't fault them. Although it was too cold to get in the water when we got to Papagayo beach it was a lovely spot, lunch was delicious and the drinks flowed from the all inclusive bar. Good value for money and would recommend it.

Puerto del Carmen - Papayago Catamaran Lineas Romero - This was probably one of the best trips myself and wife have been on based on price and experience. We found other suggested trips somewhat expensive but this suited our budget. It was uncrowded plenty of room to sit snd enjoy the outbound and inbound trip. We were well fed and ‘WATERED’ throughout the trip . The Kayaks and swimming provision were excellent with plenty of staff there to assist , with safety paramount at all times . There was a good mixture of young , middle-aged and young which was great. The music was not to my taste but not over loud so conversation with others was easy. This trip will suit all ages even those with mild disabilities . We booked through trip advisor and got 10% reduction. The staff were very professional and made the trip very enjoyable. I would thoroughly recommend this trip. Eddie and Mary

Paella and kayaking - The cruise was nice, the paella delicious, and the kayaking was fun. However, there was quite a bit of downtime.

Costal trip to papagayo - Great boat. Nice cruise down the coast. Food was great for me as I love paella, my partner doesn't eat seafood so the only other option is a tomato based pasta but he said it was OK. The tortilla snack was lovely. The facilities on the boat were good with kayaks etc.

Recommended! - Nice experience, day away with people you probably don't know on the water, well cared for.

Serious Safety Misgivings - I usually don’t write reviews but feel I really have to after an experience last Thursday. The weather was really poor which seriously affected the experience - it would have been entirely different if the weather was lovely and sea calm. It wasn’t though, and I really feel that the experience was compromised because of the weather. While I completely understand that nobody could control the weather, the experience really can’t be delivered if the weather isn’t good so it absolutely should have been cancelled in my opinion. We spent the day wet and cold, shivering in the shelter without enough seats for everyone. We had to eat under the shelter, which again meant there was not seating for everyone and our family had a very difficult time with children trying to eat on a rough sea without any where to sit down or any surfaces for plates and drinks and in a crowd. The conditions made it that there was not any possibility of snorkelling or watersports so we all had to stay at the destination with nothing to do sheltering from wind and rain with a catamaran full of equally cold and miserable tourists, trying not to fall over due to no seating and rough seas. But the reason I have given a one star is the most serious thing of all. People were invited to jump off the boat and a few did. Once in there a number were overwhelmed with the seas conditions. A lady told me her swim was ‘terrifying’. When I got home I realised there had been an orange warning due to the swell on the sea - nobody should have been anywhere near the water. This was hugely risky and very irresponsible. I needed to write to urge future parties to do your own research before you go - don’t follow the crew, and stay safe. The trip couldn’t have been delivered last week and should have been cancelled. As I said, it would have been lovely if conditions were different. As it was, it couldn’t be delivered.

Bad in December, but maybe not because of them - Bought with Costa Cruises. No information on the weather of the period which, being close to Africa would still be assumed hot. Instead, cold wind. Sun in short and unnecessary stretches. Impossible bath or kayak provided, except for daredevils and Nordic peoples. Worst excursion in the maritime category. But the mistake is probably Costa selling it to you without contraindications. On the catering included I do not comment.
