Cuba Libre Sailboat Cruise

4.5/5
498 reviews

Sailing the Cuba Libre is a sweet sensation. This single-mast yacht sails out of Santa Maria in southern Sal and specialises in all the ‘ings' – sailing, relaxing, sunbathing, snorkelling, swimming and even fishing. This is what being on holidays is all about – pure, unadulterated fun.

You'll be picked up at your hotel and transferred to Santa Maria pier. Board the Cuba Libre, and live the dream. Your crew will attend to your needs and get the show on the road. These guys aren't just good at their job – they're great fun to be around.

Once you're in the open sea, you're in God's playground. With luck, you'll spot flying fish and turtles. And if you don't, there's always the snorkelling and swimming – crewmembers have their favourite spots for both activities such as Monte Leao. Cruises are available as either half-day – morning or afternoon – or full day.

    This was a really good morning. We were picked up on time, ferried out to the yacht from a small harbour. Underway quickly, and bar open straight away. Saw a large pod of dolphins which stayed close to the boat for around 30 minutes. There was quite a mix on board, a family from Finland, a Dutch lady, and her Italian friend plus my wife and me from the UK. A really enjoyable time made by the 2 crew who were great and informative.

    Our booking was changed last minute due to sickness which couldn’t be helped but very well organised. Due to the lack of a pier the loading and loading of passengers into inflatable boats on the beach with a huge shore dump was extremely dangerous how anyone didn’t get hurt was beyond me. We also watched other people getting on and off really not safe to do so, people getting pushed off and falling if it was someone older or with any mobility issues it would have been carnage!!!

    We zouden in de ochtend gaan varen, maar met een rotsmoes werd dat naar de middag verplaatst. In de middag heb je veel minder kans om walvissen en dolfijnen te zien. De guides vertelden de hele rit helemaal niks. Ze spraken alleen maar keihard in hun eigen taal met elkaar. De snacks bestonden uit 1 bakje nootjes voor iedereen en toen we weer terugwaren haalde de guide snel wat toastjes op van land, die ze vergeten waren mee te nemen. Wat een domper voor zoveel geld!

    Hade varit bra med en presentation i början vad vi kunde förvänta av turen. Stod om snorkling i beskrivningen, stryk det om det inte ingår.

    Sejltur var udmærket, men begrænset hvad der er at se Det skuffende ved turen var, at da den sluttede blev vi sat af på en strand i Santa Maria og ingen kunne fortælle hvor vi fandt en transport hjem til hotellet, så vi endte med at måtte tage taxa.
