Excellent !

Très bonne compagnie ! Les repas étaient préparés sur le bateau par l’équipage et étaient excellents et diversifiés. On est arrivés très tôt à Withaven Beach ce qui était parfait, on était les premiers donc personne sur la plage pour les photos et pour se balader. Je recommande !

Croisière de 2 jours 2 nuits

Nous avons vécu une super croisière avec Mandrake grace a la météo parfaite. Nous avons même eu la chance de voir une baleine et de nager avec des tortues! Le bateau est vieillissant, le confort limité (pas de douchette pour se rincer après le snorkeling, toilettes très odorants ce qui est pas agréable quand nous avons la couchette dans la même pièce) Nous avons payé moitié prix, nous n'aurons pas payé plus de $400 pour le confort et la qualité des repas. Mais pour moins de $300 nous garderons un bon souvenir de cette croisière.

Hi Navy, Firstly, thank-you for taking the time to leave us a review. Any feedback is good feedback. Great to hear you had a nice time with us, but I'd really like to address any issues you had re: shower and toilet, as I would like to get to the bottom of it. Please email me (as I can't find any of your details) via dave@ozsail.com.au with a little bit more info and I will be glad to help rectify any issues, as this doesn't reflect a normal OzSail Sail+Snorkel tour. Looking forward to hearing from you. Dave Manager ~OzSail Team

Une belle expérience

Une belle expérience, groupe de 14pers donc parfait. Bonne ambiance ! La durée du séjour est suffisante bien que le retour cest fait tôt dans la matinée et j'aurai préféré passer la journée sur une belle plage !

Hi Angela, Thank-you for your review of your time on-board 'Mandrake'. We agree that getting back just before midday can be bit more-ish. I hope the rest of your travels in Australia are fantastic too. Thanks again. ~OzSail Team
