Good to know

Planned around the sea, not the clock.

Island weather and sea conditions decide a lot. We'll always confirm the plan the evening before, and if conditions aren't right we'll suggest a better alternative rather than take you out anyway.

Wildlife sightings — turtles, mantas, dolphins, whale sharks — are never guaranteed. What is guaranteed is a local crew who know these waters well.
