It exceeded all my expectations.From the very start, the Ocean Blue team was professional, friendly, and experienced. They walked us through all the safety procedures, and took the time to make sure everyone felt confident before we started. Their passion for the outdoors and the sport really came through.The canyoning itself was thrilling—rappelling down waterfalls, jumping from the waterfalls, and sliding through narrow rock formations. The scenery was breathtaking, and the guides struck the perfect balance between safety and adventure. We never felt rushed, and they even took photos for us along the way! Thank you to Rhys R 🙂This was easily one of the highlights of our trip. I would highly recommend Ocean Blue to anyone looking for a mix of adrenaline, nature, and top-tier guidance.
