Incredible experience! - It was an incredibly beautiful day. We started as a group of strangers, but little by little we started talking to each other and an amazing dynamic developed. It was a really wonderful trip. We spent the whole day at sea, our wishes were taken into account and Simon, the captain, told us lots of exciting stories. At lunchtime, Simon prepared grilled food on the boat, accompanied by an incredibly delicious sauce. Ten of us sat together and enjoyed our lunch by the sea. It was really nice! At the end of the tour we visited a sunken boat. I found that a bit scary, but still very fascinating to dive there. If you want to really let go and enjoy the day in a different way, you should definitely do it. I think the price is absolutely justified! Maybe I'll do the day cruise again because it was just so beautiful. 6 out of 5 stars to Captain Simon too, who looked after us really well and gave us a lovely day. Thank you very much for that

Magic !!! - Our day with Simon was magical and extraordinary. Simon is great, explaining the mangrove or the history of the wreck and so on. The top meal was really great. The atmosphere on the boat is great. You can go there with your eyes closed, you will have an extraordinary day Thanks again to you Simon and to the people with us that day 😉

Amazing day - Very nice excursion in the company of a very nice group. Everything was perfect from start to finish and Simon was excellent, both for the services and with the children (explanations and training in driving the boat 😂 for our son. Not forgetting the planter. We recommend without hesitation. Sandrine, David, Lilou and Jules

VERY DISAPPOINTING - Boat trip for my sister's bachelorette party, an important day... departure under the best auspices: capricious weather but a great atmosphere! Simon is at first professional and pleasant, then through alcohol he becomes more of a lunchtime slut. He blames us for no longer having music (his fault since the speaker had not been charged enough), asks us at 1 p.m. (more than 3 hours before the planned return) to find something to do since he has all exhausted and the weather is, indeed, windy. When the bride asks him if, as he told us during the day, we can go see the starfish, he sighs and replies "you tell me that now... too late" but tells us on the other hand that we can go to his house, with music and alcohol…….. We want to return to the docks, which Simon is really slow to do. He makes us wait in the water, stopping here and there talking about himself in the 3rd person, saying “Simon is going to pee” or “Simon is going to have a drink”. Heavy atmosphere, Simon is always more unpleasant and his comments more and more inappropriate to the point of being insulting. We wouldn't even know the right words, you have to have experienced it and I strongly advise against it!!!!!!

Poor - Despite cloudy weather, we were 10 girls in a very good mood to celebrate my sister's bachelorette party. Simon was very pleasant all morning but he overindulged in rum and the day got out of hand. Day cut short and Simon was very insulting to all of us. I do not recommend

Avoid for EVJFs! - Simon is at first glance very friendly with a sense of humor. A boat trip that started very well. The weather was changeable but that didn't dampen our enthusiasm and no one can control the weather. Humor which quickly transformed into a kind of very inappropriate misogyny with alcohol helping on Simon's side at the start of the afternoon. A memorable bachelorette party for the wrong reasons unfortunately for the bride. In short, I do not recommend this type of event 👎🏻

To avoid between girls!!!! - We were going to spend the day with Simon during a hen party organized for our friend. On the program: sea trip, unmissable spots in Guadeloupe, aperitif with your feet in the water, snorkeling, barbecue etc... Part of the contract was respected. The weather is getting bad but nothing dampens our good mood, our desire to have fun and show the bride a good time. In the morning Simon is pleasant and we quickly put him at ease. What a mistake!!! The gentleman allowed himself to consume alcohol (far too much) as well as drugs and became aggressive and unpleasant. Even to the point of insulting us and almost wanting to sequester us at the end of the activity (he didn't want to tie up and take us down). We are very disappointed by his behavior and very unhappy. In 2024 this is called a sexist outrage Simon and it is reprehensible! If you are a group of chicks RUN AWAY!!!
