This tour can only be done on certain days of the month and at certain times due to tide restrictions - So the best conditions for a safe trip are ensured. We are Pet Friendly - if you want to bring your furry friend, or if you have reservations with dogs on board, please contact us. Our brand-new vessel is a typical rescue boat adapted for tourism with a capacity for 20 people that guarantees exceptional safety conditions, being unsinkable due to the air chambers that surround it. In order to provide a comfortable trip and a more relaxed and familiar environment, we limit public tours to only 16 passengers.
