"There were only four of us on the boat (9:00 tour), and the captain was very nice. Unfortunately, we didn't see any turtles, but it was still great."Hannelore, September 15, 2025
"Great experience. Booked on the morning of through this website - didn't confirm as they weren't open until we arrived but we rocked up about an hour before our arrival so we could grab some breakfast. They checked us in as soon as we arrived.
Would say if booking the morning of your trip dont expect a shuttle from your hotel - just make your own way there - less stress and loads of parking on the sea front and up the hill in the car parks (all free). "Tomas, September 29, 2025
