our instructor Andrei really knew their stuff and launching off the top dune was the highlight. Used it for our summer trip so it wasnt too busy. Blew our bangkok one out of the water, and spot on for a couples day out, and ran the full session, no rushing. Would book again no question.

our instructor Dmitri was brilliant and launching off the top dune was the highlight. Booked it for my birthday so it wasnt too busy. Blew our athens one out of the water, and mid-week so it was quiet. Would book again no question.
