Unreliable

Srikoundinya_P, Jan 2026

I got a message one night before the morning of the scheduled boat trip, saying it was cancelled due to weather conditions. Interestingly, the following day was sunny, with no rain and no wind. So, not sure why they cancelled my trip.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Capitanía de puerto ha mantenido las operaciones cerradas debido al alto oleaje. Esto no es algo que dependa de nosotros. Lo lamentamos. Port Captaincy has kept operations closed due to high waves. This is not something that depends on us. We are sorry

Must do tour!

Fantastic excursion. Recommend for all ages. They show a multitude of sea creatures and went the full 1 hr out on the water.

The guides were...

Viviana_S, May 2025

The guides were wonderful. We had to pay an expensive tax we didn't know before. They took beautiful pictures but they were very expensive.
