A SUBLIME experience - A FANTASTIC experience with a wonderful, knowledgable, charming & caring crew. To be out at sea & seeing up close these extraordinary creatures frolicking around & racing our catamaran in large pods for miles was something I shall never forget! Cannot recommend this trip highly enough. I should have swam with dolphins - there was the option to do so and I chickened out. Regret that already! But watching from the deck was AMAZING! Do NOT miss this tour!

Amazing Dolphin cruise - We went on the dolphin cruise that started at 8am this morning and it was phenomenal. If you have the opportunity I highly recommend it! We were lucky with the weather - it was a beautiful day and the sea was like glass. The guides were so amazing too they had such good communication with each other and rotated the swimmers around the boat so everyone had the opportunity to have a close up with the dolphins! They also were so knowledgeable and were happy to all questions along the way as well! We were lucky enough to see a few different pods of dolphins and even a hammer head shark!

Must do Dolphin experience. - This was a fabulous experience, we were lucky enough to find two pods of dolphins on our trip, their interaction with the boat was marvellous. The guides were well informed with dolphin facts and It is a “must do” activity especially for overseas guests. We will definitely be doing it again.
