Setting Sail on the Magic Select

As a travel writer and a mother of three, I’m always on the lookout for family-friendly adventures that offer both excitement and education. When I heard about the Magic Select Catamaran tour in Fuerteventura, I knew it was an experience I couldn’t pass up. The promise of crystal-clear waters, deserted coves, and the chance to see dolphins in their natural habitat was too enticing.

Our journey began at the Morro Jable Port, where the Magic Select, a luxurious 23-meter catamaran, awaited us. The crew, consisting of Aaron, Eric, Itziar, and Juani, greeted us with warm smiles and a friendly demeanor that immediately put us at ease. As we set sail, the magnificent 150m2 sail billowed in the wind, and the adventure began.

The kids were thrilled as we glided over the azure waters, their eyes scanning the horizon for any sign of dolphins. The crew was attentive and engaging, sharing fascinating facts about the marine life and the island’s unique ecosystem. It was a perfect blend of fun and learning, exactly what I aim for in our family travels.

A Dance with Dolphins

One of the highlights of the tour was the promise of dolphin sightings, and the Magic Select did not disappoint. We were told that there was a 90% chance of seeing these playful creatures, and soon enough, we were surrounded by a pod of dolphins, sometimes up to ten at a time. Their graceful leaps and playful antics captivated us all, especially the kids, who watched in awe.

The crew’s enthusiasm was infectious, and they made sure everyone had a good view of the dolphins. It was a magical moment, one that I knew would be etched in our memories for years to come. The joy and wonder on my children’s faces were priceless, and it reminded me why I love sharing these experiences with them.

After the dolphin encounter, we continued our journey to explore the deserted coves of white sand. The tranquility of these hidden gems was a stark contrast to the lively dolphin show, offering a peaceful respite where we could relax and soak in the beauty of Fuerteventura.

Refreshments and Relaxation

As we anchored near one of the secluded coves, it was time for a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters. The kids splashed around happily, while I took a moment to enjoy the serene surroundings. The crew had prepared a delicious lunch, and we were treated to a selection of perfectly chilled drinks.

The food was a delightful surprise, with each of us savoring our portions down to the last bite. While the selection of alcoholic beverages was limited, the cold drinks were a welcome refreshment under the warm sun. It was a perfect way to unwind and enjoy the natural beauty around us.

As we sailed back to Morro Jable, I reflected on the day’s adventure. The Magic Select Catamaran tour had exceeded my expectations, offering a perfect blend of excitement, relaxation, and education. It was a reminder of the incredible experiences that await when we step out of our comfort zones and explore the world with our families.

For those planning a family trip to Fuerteventura, I highly recommend the Magic Select Catamaran tour. It’s an unforgettable journey that promises to delight both young and old, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
