“It was amazing. Huge pirate boat. Murad -bartender was very welcoming, the photographer onboard made us laugh all the staff were lovely. The food was 10/10 cooked very well, the chips were 200 lira extra, slushes 100 lira extra, very thankful for the life jackets aswell. 4 swim stops, we jumped from the top deck (3rd) and 1 hour stop at Turunc where we visited shops and went for a walk. Unfortunately start of November so abit cold did start raining but we sat in the shelter on the boat. Soft drinks were good- off brand sprite fanta and coke- free palestine. Would definitely book again in the summer.”

“The boat was lovely and Cleopatra beach was very beautiful, we enjoyed the stops at the other bays for quick swim breaks, the only let down being the lunch which our group got split up and the food wasn't the best. definitely not a BBQ. Other boat trips will offer very similar experience for less (you don't get more with this on unfortunately)”
