Captain Jack & crew (Frecia, Maria) were fantastic! Our family of four had a private sunset sail with them. We saw amazing scenery, birds, and fish (when we... read more had the opportunity to snorkel.) Maria prepared a yummy snack for everyone with fresh fruit. We really enjoyed not being on a boat filled with lots of people! It added to the serene, tranquil environment. As you can see, the sunset popped and we were even rewarded with an amazing double rainbow!! That doesn't happen every day but we were sure glad it happened for us. Don't hesitate to use Surfari del Mar, you won't regret it!!
