    Boat Trip along the Coastline to Saint George's Bay
    "Unfortunately, the sea was very rough and the boat rocked violently. My daughter felt quite seasick. I didn't think it was suitable for families with children at all. Other guests were jumping into the water from the roof, and there was no visibility for snorkeling. We were quite disappointed. In the end, it felt more like a party boat. A waste of money."Claudia · August 2026
