We got the operators to help sort out transfers which were on time. We were helped onto the catamaran. Rules for safety were given, the food was amazing really nice, ample food and dessert. We were treated really nicely the two in charge. Would definitely go with them again.

This catameran trip was our favorite of all on this island. It was VERY relaxing. The crew takes excellent care of you, always watching to see if you need anything. The food was divine. And the day goes down as one to remember. We didn't want to depart. Worth every penny. Highly recommend.
