Great value, beautiful boat trip. - Very welcoming. Stunning views and generous aperitif and drinks. We had a beautiful day to tour along the Tropea coastline even if it was late in the season. The sea was crystal clear and we stopped 3 times to swim and snorkel. The food was plentiful if simple and the drinks were distributed generously. The captain and his colleagues were very friendly and although their English was limited, we still managed to communicate enough to get the gist of what was being said. Only two draw backs: no working toilet and the snorkelling gear wasn’t the best. But those were small blips on otherwise good value and lovely excursion.
