 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wir haben ein Doppelkajak gebucht und sind selbstständig zur Insel gepaddelt. Da konnten wir schnorcheln und durften das Kajak währenddessen an das Boot der Agentur befestigen. Da sich die Wetterlage verändert hat und sehr stürmisch war hat uns das Boot direkt zurück zum Hafen gebracht. Das Team hat super Anweisungen gegeben und es wurde sich sehr gut um unsere Sicherheit gekümmert. Wir können es sehr gerne empfehlen!

Abbiamo prenotato un kayak doppio per 2 ore su GYG e siamo stati accolti da Margarida, molto gentile e ci ha dato tutte le informazioni per fare il giro dell'isola, i migliori posti da vedere e dove fare snorkeling (merita Perché si vedono tantissimi pesci!!)
Ci hanno dato pinne, maschere e una borsa impermeabile .
Non siamo entrati nel isolotto, abbiamo solo navigato intorno e 2 ore sono sufficienti se la corrente è favorevole.
Doccia disponibile al rientro in agenzia.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We rented kayak for 9 people last minute 19 August. The staff was kind and helpful and they found the best solution for us. On top of that they gave us 10-15 min bonus, offered something to drink at the return, allowed us to have a shower and suggested a very good fish restaurant. Very good experience, thanks for your professionalism and kindness 😁!
