“An absolutely spectacular boat trip. From the first moment, everything was perfectly organized and the atmosphere was unbeatable. The crew stood out for their kindness and professionalism, always attentive and making us feel comfortable and welcome. The sea was calm and the views were simply breathtaking. Sailing while the sun shone and the sea breeze accompanied made the experience relaxing and magical at the same time. One of the most special moments was seeing dolphins swimming near the boat, something that really made the day unforgettable. Without a doubt, a totally recommended activity to disconnect, enjoy the sea and create unique memories. I would repeat without thinking about it!”

You are up close & personal with the dancers & can see all the intimate amazing footwork. The staff are lovely, you get a choice of large drink, everything from beer, wine, sangria or a soft drink.

Everything was exactly as they told us and we were quite impressed with ourselves by the end... so much so that we ended up signing up for the jet skies. Another good choice and experience.
