During our navegations its common to sight different species of marine animals like marine birds , turles, whales and dolphins. Generally we offer private cruises, so depending on what you wish to see ,we visit different areas of the island. From our base in Marina Rubicon we can get to either East or West coast in just 10 minutes, as well as the Bocaina strait (Pelagic bird special protection area). The dolphins regularly accompany us during our passage, their curious and intelligent instinct makes them approach the boat and it´s so impressive to see the jumps and the speeds of these marine animals which will delight you.
