Last about 25-30 Minutes and make sure you go down to the glass bottom area if you are on on such boat to have a look through the crystal clear water and the fish, which you can also see from the Island itself at certain bays. Do take edibles with you on Spain's national holidays, everything on the island is shut on holidays. The boatmen could have told us before we left the harbour, but luckily they had beer on board, so that worked out.

From the moment we were picked up from our hotel it was an excellent excursion. Really friendly, attentive staff. Boat was not too big and had everything on board that we needed. Scenery spectacular and we saw some dolphins!!! Well worth the time and great value.

Brilliant, 10 minutes by boat followed by about thirty minutes of snorkeling with goggles. They throw bread in the water which is necessary to come the fishes

The trip went without problems and according to the schedule. Return from the island is possible at 14:20 and 17:00.

Very easy to find, staff very friendly, no complaints and I would do it again
