Good communication from the crew. We had booked for a day where the sea was a bit rough. The crew explained that this was the case and recommend to change to another day if needed. We did this as my partner got seasick on the ferry a couple of days before.
The trip was excellent and we successfully managed to see a pod of around 8-10 dolphins.

A highly recommended experience for those who love the sea and the life it sustains. We enjoyed watching the dolphins, who seemed to be accompanying us. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly.
