When private makes sense
A private boat can suit families, photographers and groups wanting a slower kayaking stop or more flexibility around meals. Compare the whole-vessel price with shared-tour prices for your actual group size, not the advertised per-person starting rate.
Confirm the vessel and total
Request recent photographs of the exact boat, its capacity, safety equipment and any toilet or sheltered seating you need. Ask for the full total including entrance fees, guide, food, kayak, transport and holiday supplements.
Keep flexibility realistic
You may adjust the pace within the booked programme, but no operator can guarantee a cave, beach or route closed by tide or authorities. Agree in writing what alternative will be offered if conditions change.
