Frequently asked questions
Is the excursion cheaper on the spot or in advance ?
Booking ahead secures availability and often a better operator, at no extra cost. Last-minute beach deals sometimes seem cheaper but are less reliable (safety, gear, respect for the animals).
Are lunch and drinks included ?
On full-day catamaran outings, usually yes (barbecue + open bar). On short outings (dolphins, snorkeling), no. It's specified in each quote.
