We really enjoyed our trip to Orange Bay, despite the windy day it was all very pleasant! Everyone was super friendly. Negative points: there was no internet on the boat as described, and we asked for a guide who spoke Spanish and there was no one there either. Other than that, only positive things to point out!

Hele leuke dag gehad. Met een relatief kleine groep op een nette boot. Na 5 min varen konden we op een bananenboot of sofa varen. Erg leuk, twee keer opgezeten zelfs. Dit nam wel tijd in beslag en ik kan me voorstellen dat het niet leuk is daarop te wachten als je hier niet op wil. Daarna 2 keer gestopt met de boot om te snorkelen. Dit was leuk maar duurde kort. Voor ons was dit prima. Ik vond het water best koud... Vervolgens heeerlijke lunch gegeten onderweg naar het eiland. Daar 1.5 uur gezeten, qua tijd was dit perfect. Vervolgens terug naar de kust. Tijdens de gehele bootreis van drinken voorzien. Het is een ontzettend leuk team jongens op de boot! Ontzettend leuke dag gehad en het was het dubbel en dwars waard.

Everything was perfect! ❤️ Day started with a transfer from hotel to the boat, then there was a 2 rides in the sea with a rubber banana and “couch”, then we went snorkeling, there was 2 options - for good swimmers and not so good. After that there was a delicious dinner (soft drinks are included all of the trip) And in the end of the trip we went to the beach ( 3 hours free time). Thank you very much❤️
