What a fantastic day! Big game fishing with Nelson and Tiger …. Could not have asked for a nicer pair to take us out to land our first blue marlin - professional, accommodating, knowledgeable - the whole package! Can’t thank them enough!
Rebecca

Great experience! They were able to fit us in last minute on the Zodiac and we had a blast! They provided full ponchos, which helped a bit against the water but were really helpful against the wind. We were able to see 3 humpback and one blue whale. Also really interesting to learn about how the NGO is tracking the whales and using the data.
David

Brilliant trip out fishing & snorkeling, with a great BBQ to finish. Drinks all day and great interaction with the crew. Would definitely go again.
Michaela

Had a fab time on the quads, morning excursion. I would highly recommend it. Definitely need clothing that you do not mind getting dirty (lots of dust).

Spent a very relaxing morning whale watching today, collected from the hotel at 08:30 precisely, taken up to Sal Rei where we were transferred onto the "Simply No Stress" by dinghy. Once aboard two briefings were given simultaneously, one in English and one in German then off out to sea to meet the whales. We were fortunate to not have long to wait before the first sighting and the on board biologist was on hand to answer any questions as were both Frank and Andrea the owners of Boa Vista Tours. There was not much crowding on the boat and plenty of space so everyone could see, it also benefited from being elevated to get a better view too. The time in between spotting whales was very relaxing and totally worth the money.
