“This was the best dolphin watch! At first, we thought we would not see them, as more than half of the tour was already done with no 🐬 sight. The other organized boats gave up and left, but we waited a bit more, and it was well worth it. We saw two dolphins at first, then followed them and spotted a whole group! It was a great experience, this team really cares about the 🐬 experience of participants, and did not mind staying a bit longer just to catch a sight. The food was simple but nice, the included drinks were not the best, but we weren't expecting much, it…”
