Spend three hours aboard the Super Delfin Verde from Palma Bay, swimming near Cala Vella or the marine reserve, eating a BBQ meal, and enjoying music with crew members such as Roger, Juan Diego, and Santi. Choose a daytime cruise or a sunset sailing, with snorkeling gear and one drink included.

“Very nice trip with the boat and the crew is very attentive. It would have been great if it was longer than only 3 hour and staying at more bays to spend some more time swiming but anyway it was very good to have lunch and drinks.”
