I had a beautiful coastal trip with Gonzales and Sylvia, who explained the species and the catamaran well. I did not see dolphins or whales, but I still found the ride calm, peaceful, and a lovely way to see the island differently.

I found it magical to encounter dolphins respectfully. I appreciated the warm welcome and the explanations about whales and dolphins. I was lucky to see a pod of dolphins and enjoyed sailing on a catamaran for the first time.

I had a fantastic 4-hour trip from start to finish. I found the crew friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the ocean, and I appreciated that they also collected waste from the sea.
