Henrique was amazing, he was so informative and answered all the questions we asked and more. He made us feel so welcome and safe on our trip. The trip itself was so good, had to give it 5*. He encouraged us all the way. Will definitely be booking again next year. Thank you Henrique for a wonderful day

Such a waste of time and money. Not a good place to snorkel (snorkels were nasty and I ended up with a bad chest infection from it). The guide did not care and spend all of his time on his phone, will not recommend
Unfortunately, this tour was very poorly organised and not something I’d recommend at all…
Once we arrived, the guide turned up at the same time as us and was clearly unprepared. We waited 40 minutes with no explanation or apology while he went back and forth getting equipment. On his last return, it was just with cigarettes and suncream for himself.
There weren’t enough locker locks, no bottled water (despite being included), and no safety briefing — just a quick paddle demo and we were off. There were only two dry bags (one crammed with everyone’s phones) and not enough snorkels, so we were told to “pass them around,” which is extremely unhygienic.
Even though we left 40 minutes late, the tour still finished at the original time, so the experience was cut short.
It felt like a complete shambles from start to finish. Time on holiday is precious, and this sadly felt like a waste of ours.
It’s worth it ! My son was thrilled by the reef dives. We also appreciate the kayak course. Finally, the guide was very friendly and knowledgeable.
Spotting a pod of dolphins and piglet whales. Swimming in the most beautiful blue Atlantic. Lying on the boat looking at the view

It was an excellent tour and highly recommended. Marcio was a friendly and helpful guide who happily shared his deep knowledge of Madeira while always ensuring that the experience was safe. After a quick lesson in the shallow waters to master the basics we went kayaking out to snorkel near some rocks. It is a fun way to get another view of Funchai from the water.
Helpful local hotel pick-up, friendly guide and coach. We had a great experience in shore lines only accessible from the water. Thank you.
Super fun event including snorkeling and rock diving in beautiful location with good guidance from a guide

Nos deux guides étaient vraiment sympathiques, le trajet en kayak pas très long (20 minutes aller et 20 retour) donc parfait pour une première. Nous avons eu beaucoup de temps pour nous baigner et observer les poissons avec le matériel fourni. C’était top ! Je recommande 🔥👌
