What a perfect way to spend the morning... - Very cool cruise, staff warm and very friendly and the BBQ lunch was delicious! Dj was great and we were lucky enough to see and swim with the turtles. Excellent cruise at a very reasonable price. We're here for a couple of weeks and will most certainly be going again before we go back home... Many thanks PS/ Love the new yacht...

Unforgettable experience in Protaras - An unforgettable experience! I can now say I have swam with turtles. It was a great trip, the views were amazing and the staff were all so lovely. I would have given 5 stars but our original cruise was cancelled last minute and it caused a little bit of stress as it was meant to be on my birthday. But I have to say the company were very helpful in organising another day to go on the trip instead. I also found the “unlimited drinks” option misleading as it did not include alcohol, only soft drinks. So be aware before you go! Other than that I highly recommend. It’s a great way to see the sights along the shoreline of Protaras and for safe sea swimming.

Great boat trip - Spent a great 3.5 hours on board in beautiful sunshine last Saturday morning. We left Protaras at 10.30 and the first stop was to see Famagusta in the distance and hear about the resort being stormed by the Turks in 1974 We then turned and had our first swim stop which included 2 turtles We then saw an old church and some caves before our next swim stop followed by a bbq style lunch By then it was time to sail for home where we arrived just before 2pm A heat time and the boat restricts the numbers so plenty of space and the captains commentary when necessary was very informative Well worth booking

Disappointing cruise !!! - Sadly quite disappointed with this boat cruise which we booked for the 17th May. We were told to arrive at 9.40 and arrived at 9.25 only to find an extremely packed boat and nowhere to be seated upstairs which is why we booked this cruise… when we booked it we even asked if we would be able to sit upstairs and the response was yes plenty of space . So we ended up having to sit on the lower deck right next to the BBQ as these were the only seats left apart from sitting inside which is not why we booked this trip. It wasn’t ideal as we constantly had the smoke blowing in our faces for most of the cruise so my eyes were continually streaming. The staff were lovely at first but as the cruise went on they seemed to get a bit snappy especially the captain. Not sure he was having a bad day. Being on the lower deck you are also not included in the games and music that is on the top deck on the way back! You could also not hear any information about the area that was given over the speakers so we felt really excluded in all what was going on. There were two swim stops on this boat and I did ask if they had any noodles as I am not the strongest swimmer which the answer given was no and was told if we had a few we would have to get a lot more to cater for everyone but not everyone wants to use a swim float so I didn’t understand this comment . I was told life jackets only so very disappointing !! We did see some turtles which was nice. The food was just ok and nothing special. Will I book this boat trip again when we return? No ….as there is no guarantee you can sit on the top deck as in my opinion the boat is over packed and I am not sure why they asked us to arrive at 9.40 when everyone else was already on the boat!!! Had we arrived any later than the 9.25 that we did we would have had nowhere to sit!!! Maybe my review would have been different had we been included in all what was going on but a definite no from me, we felt that once they had had our money they didn’t really care!!!
