Review of Valencia’s Boramar catamaran cruise, with chicken paella, salad, fruit, a swim stop, coastal views, and practical booking tips.

“It was a lot of fun!! Music and drinks were cheap and flowing. It wasn’t much swimming. Especially because you swim right after you eat so you kind of don’t want to be in the water much. I wish it was longer so we could swim a bit before eating. Food was great! I definitely recommend.”

Cruise the Athens Riviera on a small-group catamaran with Greek lunch, drinks, two swim stops, snorkeling, and sunset views.

“Our captain and chef were amazing! Safety was their main concern, and everyone had a wonderful time. The fresh food was made while we traversed to our 2 different swim stops. Don't be shy, grab a pool noodle and a snorkel mask and explore! So beautiful you could see to the bottom. We had a 7 and 10 year old with us, and they said they had an amazing time too. Thank you for making our 10 year olds birthday very special!!”

Review of a private St. Thomas catamaran charter with snorkeling, beaches, turtles, flexible routes, drinks, and practical cost advice.
