All trips on days of adverse weather should be cancelled. Terrible waste of 2 hours. Cold windy and miserable. No commentary so we just moved around on the catamaran for 2 hours in the bay freezing. No idea what we were looking at, no stop for a swim, not that we would have liked to as the weath...
All trips on days of adverse weather should be cancelled. Terrible waste of 2 hours. Cold windy and miserable. No commentary so we just moved around on the catamaran for 2 hours in the bay freezing. No idea what we were looking at, no stop for a swim, not that we would have liked to as the weather turned on us and the whole trip was basically 8-10 people huddling under whatever warm towels or jackets we could find. pretty sure had we have been given opportunity most of us would have voted to head back and be given a voucher for another day . It was truly awful 2 hours on bean bags no stops ... we just kept going and going away from shoreline so seemed like a trip to no where. Also felt quite unsafe as one skipper only and no other crew. Really upset that our trip was this bad.Amazing!!. Racheal and Luke are awesome hosts ,very interactive and make sure everyone’s comfortable and having a good time. Great cruise and swim .Best cruise ,everyone should book!
