Snorkeling off Vila Franca do Campo, São Miguel: clear waters, a short boat ride, safety-first guidance, and great Atlantic fish viewing.
“Fijne duikschool. De omstandigheden waren lastig door een storm in het grotere gebied. Als gevolg daarvan was er niet heel veel bijzonders te zien en was er sterke stroming. De tweede duik werd daarom geannuleerd en daar kreeg ik een terugbetaling voor. Ze nemen veiligheid heel serieus, uitrusting is in orde en ze zorgen goed voor de duikers.”

Wij wilden alleen snorkelen en zeilen, dus dat hebben we gedaan. We mochten voor op het dek (van deze prachtige zeilboot) liggen om te relaxen, maar we mochten ook meehelpen met zeilen als we wilden. Ook mochten we kiezen op welk tempo we wilden zeilen: rustig en relaxed of zo hard mogelijk. Kortom, gedurende deze 3 uur doet de crew volledig zijn best om het je zo goed mogelijk naar de zin te maken, en dat is gelukt! Zeker in vergelijking met…”
