Great trip - This was a great experience, the boats only have 12 spots and you are say jockey seat position giving you good stability and surprisingly comfortable seating . We departed on time and the boat travels quickly out to look for dolphins , we were lucky enough to see common dolphins and then we headed back along the coastline exploring caves - in all it was a little over 2 hours Ricky was our Captain and he was knowledgeable and helpful. We felt very safe and had a wonderful time

Not helpful at all - We’ll day one of booking I arrived to the place on time walked up to the desk and was informed that the boat wasn’t going out today as was broken ! I asked if they had any other boats for that day they said no do you want a refund so I said yes please, about a hour later had a thought to ask if they had another day they could just move it they was a little reluctant but did so. Day 2 arrived about a hour befor same thing again walked up went to book in we’re and got told we’re not letting any of our boats out today it’s to windy. I was very pissed of at this point as for the 2 days had cost about €50 in cabs to get to this place as we had no car out here just to be told sorry no boats today no phone call text or email to let us know if advance, to add to it every other companies was still going out over 15 more companies but unfortunately we’re all booked. Then got told would take over a week for them to refund my money I know they can’t help the weather but let people know so they don’t have a wasted trip
