“Exhilarating and wonderous - a trip for all the senses!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 31, 2009

An excellent combination of fun and wonderous sights of the wildlife. The Wet & Wild trip is NOT for the feint hearted! With a really wet and fun spin in the boat ( I didn't think "handbrake turns" were possible in a boat!), but then you get a rest, when the boat moves in quietly to Ramsey Island for a close up of the seals. We were lucky that some youngsters were as curious about us, and came a little closer.
Ramsey Island is full of small and large caves and blowholes which add to the experience, as well as plenty of birds swooping on and off the cliff edges.
The Skipper is VERY knowledgeable about the Island and the wildlife - who thought learning could be so much fun?!
Take a change of clothes and if getting on the boat at St Justinian, take drinks and food to come back to as no food or beverage facilities there.
There are other, less wild boat trips also available for those who aren't sure about their sea legs!
We're definately going back for more next year - Thank You Venture Jet

Thanks for taking the time to post a review. So glad you enjoyed your trip – we do try! The Wet and Wild is our most popular trip (and not always soaking wet!) It’s really interesting to see passengers’ views of things. St Justinian is beautiful but of course at best you have portaloos and as you say there’s nowhere to get drinks, food etc. Whitesands is a stunning family beach with loos, a café and lifeguards and large car park (best to arrive by 11.30 in peak season though). We run from the beach where possible in the summer but last summer wasn’t exactly beach weather was it? Hence the decision to run from St Justinian more often than we usually would. Fingers crossed for better weather this year. Have a great time on your Pembrokeshire holiday whatever you do. Thanks. Beth
