    Very poor customer experience

    Roger_A, Mar 2026
    Very poor customer experience, my booking was'nt registered with the tour operator, so I had to.purchase my own ticket and I'm still waiting for a refund.

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you faced. It seems there was an issue with the external agency you tried to book with. Whenever a booking doesn't automatically appear in our system, our ticket office relies on the customer's confirmation email to solve it. Because no confirmation email was generated on your end, our team had no proof of purchase to allow you on board and had to charge for a new ticket. We highly recommend contacting the customer service of the website where you attempted to book, as they are the only ones who can process the refund for that failed booking attempt.

    Thank you for such a lovely review! Our ferry ride to Fuengirola is indeed a relaxing way to travel along the coast, and sitting on the top deck offers the absolute best views of the marine life and seabirds. We are thrilled you enjoyed the journey and our friendly staff. Hope to see you on board again soon!

    Lovely boat trip *****

    This was a 5 start service, from start to finish. The vessel was exceptional as were the Staff. A lovely, leisurely cruise along a beautiful stretch of coastline. I highly recommend.

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    What a wonderful review, thank you! Cruising along this beautiful stretch of the coastline is always a pleasure, and we are thrilled that our staff helped make it a true 5-star, leisurely experience for you. We truly appreciate your high recommendation and look forward to your next visit!

    A relaxed and leisurely trip.

    I wanted to share this relaxing, leisurely experience with my grandson and it hit the spot perfectly. We thoroughly enjoyed it, opting for a one way trip from Benalmadena back to Fuengirola.

    Terrible

    Roy_P, Sep 2024
    Boat was over crowded and not a very good experience at all no were to sit not much else to say llllllllllllllllllllll

    Hard to find!!!

    Lina_V, Sep 2024
    Not being able to find the meeting point and missing the tour. Also, we were told that this was not an actual tour around the area but rather a mean to transport people from one area to another. We were very disappointed!!!

    Great value for money

    Great boat trip with the family staff were very friendly and helpful, drinks prices were great and the best experience seeing my 3yr old seeing the dolphins which came right up to the boat.

    Every year again

    Emile_W, Apr 2026

    Super oplevelse

    Steen_W, Jun 2025
    Super fin færge, meget velholdt og pæn og ren all over. Super besætning med højt service niveau. Redningsmateriel fuldt opdateret. Dejligt at komme på havet og slippe for hedebølge.

    Everything went smoothly.
