Wonderful experience! Medaqua did a great job making our snorkel tour fun and memorable. We had plenty of time in the water and saw a lot of sea life. They could have given a bit more explanation during the short tour around the islands but overall we enjoyed everything and would recommend!

We only swam 50mt around de boat. I found it too few as the place deserves it. The staff was very fun

We were a three generation group - granddad, daughter and grandson aged 9. We all thoroughly enjoyed our snorkeling trip to the Isles Medes. The weather was perfect and our English speaking guide/instructor took great care to point out the wide variety of fish and rock formations during our 50 minute swim. Wet suits, flippers and masks all reasonably good quality and new snorkel given to everyone. Total time from check in, fitting wetsuits, walking to the boat, safety instructions and what to look for, boat trip to islands, snorkeling, swim at end and return was 2 hours. There were two other groups on the boat, 8 Catalan and 7 French speaking with a group leader fluent in the language.

We have often snorkeled off the coast of Costa Brava. We expected to see more and different fish because it is a protected nature reserve, but that was disappointing.

Although the kids are nice, the activity is very fair. To visit a nature reserve like the Medes, you don't see much nor do they explain anything to you. I wouldn't repeat.

The day we booked the Medes Islands snorkeling excursion was a windy day. Therefore, we did not go around the Medes Islands by boat nor was the snorkelling what we expected. Very cloudy water and practically nothing could be seen. I understand that the agency cannot control the weather but it could cancel the reservation or change it to another day if the circumstances are not good for the excursion. It was not at all what we expected. We were very excited and we didn't see anything.

Bien mais on reste toujours au même endroit et beaucoup de personnes au même endroit. 50 min d’activité sur 2h30.

Hicimos la excursión de Snorkel por las Islas Medas mi marido y yo con un chico de 16, un niño de 9 y una niña de 7 años. Nunca habían hecho snorkel antes y lo hicieron sin problema. Las monitoras, súper amables, Petra nos guió por las zonas donde había más peces, nos explicó previamente cómo iba a ser y se preocupó todo el rato de que los niños estuviesen bien. Los chicos del barco encantadores también. Si tenemos que decir un pero fue que en la página donde contratamos la excursión ponía que eran tres horas y quedamos a las 16 para poner los trajes y a las 18:15 estábamos ya en tierra. Pero aún así para repetir el próximo verano sin duda.

Maravillosa experiencia. Tener cuidado por que se ofrecen 2 servicios, el más caro es para hacer snorkel en las islas Medes y el más económico es para hacerlo en la costa, no lo aclaran cuando se contrata por internet y cuando llegamos estaba el cupo completo para las islas (nos permitieron cambiarlo para el día siguiente.
