“A wonderful ride on the sea, but you have to take a jacket because of the wind. Very nice staff and a lot of interesting information about the islands around. We've seen dolphins, but not so many, because that depends on the wild life. You can't plan that. But the captain tried very hard to find some and didn't chase them as the other boats did. We were very satisfied.”
