Schön wäre gewesen, das Speedboat schon bei der Buchung mal zu sehen. Wir waren zuerst etwas skeptisch, als wir das kleine Speedboat und den großen Ozean gesehen haben. Da das Meer an diesem Tag aber sehr ruhig war, war es ein sehr schöner Ausflug und wir haben einige Wale und Delfine gesehen.

Met prima weer, een goede kapitein en prima gids was dit een erg leuke ervaring. We hebben walvissen en dolfijnen gezien.

Leuk: snelle boot, mooi weer en veel tijd en moeite om dolfijnen en walvis te spotten. Serieus zoeken, ook met hulp van mensen aan land. Minder leuk: vanwege snelheid en klappen op het water en de duur ervan, gaat de rug pijn doen.

Vooreerst zijn we met de catamaran gegaan en niet met de zodiac. We hebben gewoon pech gehad. We hebben weliswaar zowel walvissen als dolfijnen gespot, maar vrienden die andere dagen gekozen hadden, hadden meer geluk. Geen verwijt aan de organisatie evenwel. Behalve dat de geluidsinstalatie niet goed genoeg werkte om de uitleg te begrijpen.

Wij hadden een omboeking omwille van het weer. Achteraf bekeken meer als terecht. Alleen maar lof voor de mensen van picos de aventura. De zee was woelig.. maar we hebben en dolfijnen EN walvissen gespot. Op de catamaran waren 4 begeleiders. De crew gaf uitleg, deelde zakjes uit aan wie daar behoefte aan had en assisteerde waar nodig. Wij hebben er in elk geval van genoten

Uiteindelijk met speedboot gegaan. Super !! De boottocht op zich is al leuk maar als je dan ook nog eens walvissen spot en er ook een school dolfijnen een schow komt geven. Helemaal top !

Der Ausflug insgesamt war sehr schön. Sichtung von Pottwal und Delfinen. Die Organisation war eine Katastrophe. Mehrere Terminverschiebungen, kein Hoteltransfer, obwohl gebucht.
