Amazing trip. 27 blokes on a stag. Staff were great and so were the drinks. We were lucky enough to see dolphins too. Thank you

Everything about the boat trip we booked was dreamy from start to finish. We were welcomed on the port by the crew who gave us a helpful briefing before we left the marina was the most attentive throughout the trip! The food and drink package was a great choice! We passed the Benagil Caves, pulled over into a private cove area and were able to enjoy a swim and some paddle-boarding before leaving and then got to enjoy the fun Ringos experience on the trip back to the marina. We had an amazing time and would recommend this trip to anyone looking for a dreamy boat, a great crew and amazing views. 5/5!

We had a great time. The catamaran was exactly as shown in pictures on the advertisement and the staff on the boat were very kind and helpful. The weather was a bit rough and a few of our group were feeling sea sick but the staff were understanding and took us into the nearest marina so we could relax. The food/drink included was also a great addition. I would definitely recommend this experience to others :)
