Superbe expérience voilier !

J’ai passé une magnifique journée sur le voilier de Mike. Nous étions 12, largement la place pour tout le monde. Des snacks tout au long de la navigation préparés avec amour par Sam! Au programme stop sur une île déserte, snorkeling (matériel fourni gratuitement), baignade, marche. Partage d’expérience de la voile, mike nous a emmené voir des petit manchots. Bref parfait si vous cherchez une croisière à taille humaine ! J’y retournerais bien demain ?

Super journée à bord du Gungha II !

J'ai beaucoup aimé cette journée de navigation. Mike et Sam sont aux petits soins avec l'équipage : de belles anecdotes, de la nourriture fraîche, une halte sur une île avec possibilité de balade et snorkeling et en prime, nous avons eu la chance de naviguer à côté des dauphins ! Je recommande cette sortie à 100% !

Excellent

Traversée magnifique. Mike nous a deposé sur une ile paradisiaque où nous avons pu nager et nous promener. Tres belle expérience.

Genial

Super journée ! Mike est très accueillant il a un français très correct ce qui est très pratique pour ceux qui ont du mal avec l'anglais. Sinon bateau très spacieux j'ai eu la chance de hisser la grand voile et de manœuvrer le bateau tout ça en suivant les indications de Mike, parfait pour apprendre 2-3 choses utiles si vous le souhaitez. Nous avons eu le droit à une petite collation avant de quitter le bateau. Bien évidemment tout était super beau comme c'est le cas partout dans ce pays les côtes étaient magnifiques, l'île sur laquelle nous nous sommes arrêté aussi avec une vue superbe. Ensuite Mike nous a préparé un déjeuner simple et très bon un bon sandwich fait maison avec une orange des biscuits et des rafraîchissements. C'était l'anniversaire d'une personne à bord ce jour là Mike à acheté un gâteau pour cette occasion, gentille attention de sa part ce qui vous permet de vous faire une idée sur le personnage. Je recommande vivement vous allez adorer.

Très bien

Nous avons passé une excellente journée. Tout correspond bien à la description. L arrêt sur une plage déserte permet de prendre de l altitude pour admirer un merveilleux paysage et de se baigner. Les petits snacks et le sandwich du lunch sont parfaits.
