About this experience
Once kitted up in lifejackets and having had a safety brief we will depart Torquay Marina and head along the coast stopping at secluded bays, rock islands and stunning coves. Be prepared for the moving bits to be done with astonishing acceleration but then settle into some witty commentary from the crew onboard as they showcase the very best bits of Torbay for you to see.
We will also keep a look at for wildlife along the way.
Raptor seats 12 people and we are on the water for 30 minutes.
Its an experience you will never forget.
