Good to know

Will I get seasick?

Unlikely. The bay is sheltered by the islands and the water is usually flat.

What if a storm closes the bay?

When the harbour authority closes the bay, no boats sail. We move your date or refund you in full.

Can children share our cabin?

Yes, one child can share with two adults. For larger families we book two cabins next to each other.

Can I cancel?

Free cancellation up to 14 days before departure.
