Guidekin's take

A half day on a large catamaran with three snorkel stops, the Antilla wreck, Catalina Bay and Malmok, a Caribbean lunch buffet and an open bar with cocktails.

Transport to the pier is arranged with the operator for a fee, and non swimming children need a life vest booked ahead. 4.78 from 853 reviews at €97 per person.

In our comparison: #11 of 19 in Catamaran & Snorkeling Sails, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
