the boat we sailed on surprised us very positively - lots of sunbeds both upstairs and downstairs; everything went smoothly despite the unfavorable weather; in the summer, a trip really worth recommending with a swim in the blue lagoon. Look out for dolphins during the trip 😃

I would have spent more time at the blue lagoon and less time in the city, but it was great anyway!
