Had a trip of a life time! Luis and Alvaro were brilliant. We were not rushed or anything and they made sure my 8 yesterday old daughter had enough time to watch dolphins and on the slide to the sea
Could not recommend them enough!
They had all the gear we needed and even had lunch for us.
Thank you

Great trip with Luis and Alvaro, sea trip + swimming with wetsuit/fins provided, we can also go on the slide as well as paddle surfing. Food included and a short walk to the seaport. I recommend it 1000%, to do at least 1000 times ❤️

It was a really fun experience aboard the Lu Sea (Lucy). The slide is awesome, and they even let us jump into the water from the second floor of the boat. We had a great time!

Álvaro and Luis were very attentive at all times. They offered us jackets when it was cold up top (where the views were spectacular), wetsuits for everyone because the water was cold, a glass for my drink, and they made sure the slide was always full of water so we could slide down.

A 100% recommended experience.

Really good day on the water. The whole family saw flying fish, got to use snorkels and flippers to swim in the open ocean for the first time, and had a dive down to an old wreck. There were great activities on and around the boat too with a very slick water slide into the ocean, and paddle boards/kayak.
The crew on the boat were very helpful and you always felt safe. Strongly recommended.

We had the best time on the Lu Sea, the two lads were brilliant too. They brought us to a little boat wreak where we snorkelled down to see the fish. We used the paddle boards, kayaks and the big blow up side was a real hit with the kids and adults.
We weren’t expecting to see many dolphins but I was so wrong. There was lots of dolphins splashing and playing around. Some came right up to the boat and swam along side. Highly recommend this boat trip.

We had the best morning with Luis and Álvaro. Pick up was on time, we were close to marina so got there pretty quickly. First stop the dolphins, we were so lucky to see a pod of about 8, one was a calf with its mum. They swam with the boat for quite some time, but then it was time to head to the sunken boat. Once docked, we kitted up. No need for wetsuits as water wasn’t too cold, but they were available. Goggles and flippers on we headed over to the site. We weren’t so brave as to venture all the way down to check it out, but it’s not too far down, and there was a rope guideline attached to a paddle board to help. Once the slide was inflated we headed back to the boat, where we enjoyed the slide and paddleboards, and some ham,cheese and salad roles…. the kids and adults enjoyed the entire experience. The captains were very kind and attentive. They took and shared some great pictures for us, including our unexpected sighting of a huge jellyfish. We didn’t know our fellow shipmates, but everyone chatted and got along. It’s not cheap, but was well worth it!! There was alcohol available but we didn’t indulge. We were a family of 4, with a 14 and 15 year old (girls). If you or your kids are prone to seasickness you may want to be prepared for that. Water is so calm, but on a small boat it could be rocky at times. Do it…. you wont regret it!

This was a very awesome trip! The slide is just so much fun. Only complaint is the boat can get slippery so be careful! Saw dolphins, a boat wreck, and everything was good!

Amazing excursion if you have time in Malaga! Luis and Alvaro were fantastic and allowed us to have a relaxing end to our vacation. The boat we rented had a captian, slide, paddle boards, and lunch included. If you’re lucky, you may be able to spot some dolphins along the way.
