A wonderful sailing trip with Moorings in the Abaco Islands! - We just returned from a Moorings Charter in the Abaco islands! Could not have had a better time. The boat was perfect and our Skipper, Tony, was superb! Thank you Moorings and Skiller Tony for a wonderful time!!

Do it. - Fantastic boat trip, great communication with the operator in regards to meeting point, and one of the most chill boat tours we’ve done. We had 12 passengers on board which was infinitely better than being jammed onto a boat with hundreds of people.

Recommended! - Wonderful experience, a must try if you go to Liguria, to admire from the water the beauties that the region offers, also being able to take a bath in a clean and safe area. Beautiful atmosphere on the boat, with skipper Giacomo friendly, helpful and prepared, who described the beauties of the area, also telling us different curiosities, and delighted us with good music, prosecco and snacks. Absolutely recommended.

Wonderful 🤩 - Great experience!! Super recommended tour, beautiful views and beautiful water where we bathed, because of the jellyfish we could not swim near the coast but we still swam off isole.Meravigliose!! Giacomo, the skipper, was super helpful, nice and helpful, explained to everyone in different languages (English, Spanish and Italian) what we were seeing step by step in the tour. Aperitif and background music made the tour even more enjoyable. Experience worth doing!!!

An amazing experience. Don’t pass it up if you ever get the chance to do it! - A fabulous experience with the charming and informative Skipper Giacomo. It was a wonderful boat tour of the charming towns and nature reserve of La Spezia. We saw sea caves and historic buildings and swam in the azure blue water. We were even treated to pizzetta and fizz. As a family we voted it one of the best things we have ever done!

Great day out in La Spezia - We had the boat to ourselves! Our captain was very relaxed and full of information about the places we passed. We managed to see some dolphins where we got to stop and they swan right up the boat. We had time to swim and champagne and the foccaccia was delicious!! Three house on the boat was a nice amount of time and there was shade on the boat if the sun got to much for anyone.

Not a reliable company and not turstworthy - I am sorry to write this review. But we were booked for this boat trip in August. This was a late afternoon trip starting at 5:00. We already heard thunder on our way to the port, so honestly I would assume that a boat organization watches the weather forecast. As we made it to Portovenere the weather turned horrid. terrible waves and terrible rainfall, lightning and thunder all over the bay. We even whitnessed the police patrol rescuing some people from a yacht and bringing them to Portovenere and them kissing the ground of the port, how scared they were. Our captain let us disembarked the boat in Portovenere and kept telling us it will go away. But the weather only got worse and the captain looked like he had enough on his plate just handelling the boat itslef. He probably did not have persmissin to park in the Portovenere marina, so he was floating about, roof down, so that the rain and wind would not tear the boat apart. As a group of 5 passangers, standing in the pouring rain in the marina with barely no shelter we decided to let the captain know that we will find our way back to La Spezia on land. The information from the company was that we will be fully compensated and reimbursed. Till today, I received a few messages that the reimbursment will take place, but in fact, there has been no sign of that. I have sent 7 messages since the trip, received 2 answers. I am disapointed in this approach. Pretending that you will take the correct action, but in fact there is no care about the customer. I am still awaiting the reimbursment. One fact is the refund, but the other is also the fact, that maybe that trip should have been cancelled in the first place, due to weather conditions. Not putting your clients in this scary situation.
