He was energetic and friendly, engaging everyone in the group in conversation. His arrangements with the scuba club where we changed and the kayak rental operation made everything run smoothly and comfortably. His kayaking instructions were clear. Kayaking was great. The cliffs are lovely and we were able to get inside a couple of caves. The snorkeling was fun. Lunch was good with authentic Spanish dishes. We had ample free time to explore the fort and the old city, do some shopping and have a drink. Matias…”

“Overall, we really enjoyed the experience as beginner kayakers. The day goes by very quickly so I recommend having your bathing suit under your clothes ready to go. I also recommend buying the water shoes there or bringing your own as the sand contains pebbles and the rocks may be sharp when snorkeling. You can get by being a beginner at kayaking, but You definitely need to have some athletic and swimming ability to do this excursion so just keep that in mind! The water felt great and it was a beautiful experience. Lunch is a quick sandwich on the beach and then we headed back to the meeting point.…”
