An unforgettable moment, all those dolphins close to the boat!
And the cave, of course, is a must-see, as are the other stops with explanations along the coast.
All this in excellent conditions and with a well-organized program.

I was looking for a boat tour that allowed my little dog to come along. We received a warm welcome, the guides were incredibly friendly, even to my dog, and we were able to see a family of dolphins and a shark. The tour was conducted in several languages, but German wasn't one of them. The boat was stable and secure in the water, but since we often went quite fast, it was windy and cold, so it's best to pack jackets :)
