Guidekin's take

A cave and coastline cruise with live commentary that ends with a swim beside one of the beaches instead of heading straight back.

Children under six are not allowed and dolphins are searched, not guaranteed. 4.7 from 194 reviews at €35 per person for 2h 30m.

In our comparison: #4 of 7 in Dolphin Watching, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
