Nature rules, no matter what

Montserrat_A, Aug 2026
Expectations were high, but when you see sunfish, schools of sardines, and 9 orcas with calves… you forget everything, and you thank nature. MADIE has the right to destroy this common good.

At the beginning the boat went slowly, but on the way back it was basically boat go-karting, the urge to vomit the whole trip back.. Otherwise the view, and having seen the marine animals was super beautiful to see. The time is also long round trip. + the 60 euros in extra charges even though we didn't set foot in Morocco, that's also great, I will send them the bill 😌🌟
