[H4] Great Fun
We went here as a big group, 4 adults & 9 children (aged from 7-16) and everyone of us had a fantastic time and are still talking about it. Everything, from checking in, to getting our wetsuits, to the safety talk and finally going out onto the inflatables was so well organised and efficient… Margaret O wrote a review Aug 2019
