Good Points

Good value for money. Cabins not great but fine for the trip duration. Very impressive talks and presenttation from the resident Dolphin and Whale experts.


Bad Points

Food is generally good but expensive. The car park cost is not at all good value (40 GBP)...no wonder the car park is is almost empty.


General Comments

P&O Mini Cruise was good value, I would use the service again.

The cabins are small, I would recommend a cabin upgrade if you can. Also I would suggest a sea view cabin, great views.

The food is good, especially at the buffet restaurant although quite expensive.

The staff are invariably willing to help and are talkative. The captain provides very detailed information about the journey.

The scrolling map is very useful to provide information about suitable times to dolphin watch.

We didn't go an a paid tour, choosing instead to stay in the local town. Not really a good impression, the service in shops and restaurant was rude and curt; the assumption being that we don't speak Spanish (we do) and therefore treated accordingly.

Both the outward and return journey very smooth, the sea being almost flat calm.
