Picture sipping a mojito, reclining on a luxury catamaran and sailing past glittering seas – well, this is exactly what this catamaran cruise to Papagayo bay promises. You'll hit the seas in search of Lanzarote's pristine bays to siesta and soak up some sun.

Step on board in Puerto del Carmen and sit back ready for four hours of total relaxation at sea. We'll cruise along Lanzarote's picturesque coastline all the way to Papagayo bay while you sip on a cocktail, sunbathe and watch out for dolphins along the way.

Once we've anchored in Papagayo, take advantage of the idyllic setting to try kayaking and take in the sights of this secluded sanctuary. Your crew will rustle up a tasty paella to enjoy on board as well as an all-inclusive bar to keep you feeling hydrated in the sun. Undisturbed relaxation awaits.

Good points; Good amount of time sailing and beautiful coastline. Negative; Not enough time at papagayo bay Food was very basic-not unexpected but felt very lazy. Drinks ok. Very costly excursion, for £180 for 3 people i did expect a better experience. Charging a 13 year old the same price as an adult seemed excessive, so perhaps it should be a cost for teens. Toilets were revolting and much worse than expected. Had better boat experiences so do consider this poor value for money overall.

It was not 12+ Adults only - babies, toddlers and children everywhere. The place stopped at for snorkelling was empty and boring - hardly any wildlife to be seen the whole trip. Facilities sub-standard with no light in the SINGULAR toilet on board. Too many people on board too - not enough seating or even room to move. Absolutely no atmosphere. Paella was tasted like golden rice sachets with some frozen veg in. The staff were all friendly and hard working however.

Perfect well organised and amazing food and drink available

Staff were great however only a small selection of drinks and when the pot of mojito had gone there wasn't anymore given the numbers on board drinks selection could be better all round.

Only qualm I had was that there was no where on the booking form to mention food allergies so the cruise weren't prepared in advance. The captain was great though and still found something for me to eat

Nice size boat, lovely crew, food and drink lots of it. I would have liked to had time to actually go onto the beach itself rather than staying on the boat.
