Excellent value and recommended - Sergio was an excellent guide and the two islands were charming. We couldn't do the bird watching tour because of the weather but Sergio made a point of talking about the wildlife and the oyster and clam fisheries. He made a quick detour and stop when he spotted a spoonbill. Good value for money. Recommended.

Sunset trip - An experience that enchants all the senses and gives unique emotions. Imagine boarding a small boat, as the sun begins to dive behind the horizon. The sky is tinged with golden, orange and pink shades, creating a visual spectacle that seems almost unreal. The quiet sound of the waves gently crashing against the boat, combined with the light breeze, creates an atmosphere of absolute relaxation. Highly recommended!
