“We booked a 2-hour whale-watching tour. Despite the rather difficult conditions (waves), we were able to see pilot whales and dolphins. The crew took more time than originally planned, until we could spot pilot whales. They always ensure that the animals are not disturbed. The crew was extremely friendly, pleasant and accommodating! We would like to thank Lucia in particular, who took the time to personally translate for us and our children the interesting information about the animals we saw and to ensure that our children had the best possible view of the animals!”
