“Amazing day trip - Thank you so much for an experience that was absolutely stunning. When we set out from the harbor we were all strangers, and by the time we returned, we were friends. The boat is immaculate, and our host was stellar sharing insights on the local history and culture. Where we sailed was beautiful; accessible only by boat, with some of the finest swimming I’ve experienced in my trip. Our lunch was delicious too. I tried to take many pictures, but none of them do the scenery any justice. This is an excursion that we will remember the rest of our days.” - Reviewed on 2024-09-26
