点评:We looked online at the available water sports and also on YouTube at Dans World and Continental Coxons which both have a great video of a day at Banana Watersports.
We are a family of four with two teenagers of 15 & 17 and we wanted to do the Crazy UFO, Fly Fish and hire two JetSkis. The total cost for this was €205…which is what it is…but we had planned for it and so it wasn’t a shock. It’s usually about €15 per person per ride and €50 for 15mins on a JetSki.
I wasn’t impressed with the guy who took our money…I think he was channelling his inner Brad Pitt and was acting like his job was beneath him and he was soooo bored and too cool for tourists… Not a helpful person and I nearly walked away. If you don’t like your job, do something else.
However once we got past him, everyone else was really nice, the drivers of the boats were great and judged the speed really well…they would look back and check on us and ask for a thumbs up from us…a nice touch.
I was impressed with the safety features on the JetSkis. They have GPS speed limiters to slow you down close to the shore and if you go within 100m of another JetSki…once in the sea you can let rip and they went fast enough to have loads of fun. Really good and worth the €100.
Crazy UFO was great fun, not too crazy and no one fell off…again sensibly driven.
Fly Fish is nuts. My wife didn’t go on it with us and you have to have some serious grip…it is basically a kite with three people sitting on it. You get two passes and only in one direction do you take off. It was an adventure but I think we probably would have had more fun on the ringos or something similar. Again, sensible driving and safety checks from the driver made me as a father grateful to the driver.
I have to mention the photos and videos. Banana Water sports take photos and videos from a drone…it’s €15 for the photos and I think €35 if you include the drone video. I think this is pretty good value and it was much more expensive for the same service when we were in Mexico last year. The photos really made the trip as we weren’t expecting to have any record of the rides. The photos were well framed, in focus and good quality. We got some great photos so we were very happy. The photo staff were lovely and Brad Pitt on reception could learn a thing or two about how to talk to people from the photo staff.
All in all a very professional and competent company that I could trust to look after my family. Not mega expensive from my experience in other countries and good quality equipment so I was very pleased. Thanks Banana Watersport.
翻译:我们在网上查看了可供选择的水上运动项目,还在YouTube上观看了“Dans World”和“Continental Coxons”发布的视频——这两个频道都有一段很棒的视频,记录了在Banana Watersports度过的一天。
我们是一家四口,有两个分别为15岁和17岁的青少年。我们打算体验“Crazy UFO”项目、飞钓活动,还打算租用两辆水上摩托艇。这一切的总费用是205欧元……价格就是这样啦,不过我们事先已有预算规划,所以并不觉得意外。通常情况下,每人每次体验的费用约为15欧元,而租用水上摩托艇15分钟则需50欧元。那个收我们钱的家伙没给我留下什么好印象……我觉得他试图模仿布拉德·皮特的做派,表现得好像这份工作有损他的身份似的;他看上去无聊至极,还摆出一副对游客不屑一顾的酷样……他实在帮不上什么忙,我当时差点就走人了。要是不喜欢自己的工作,那就另谋出路吧。
不过,跳过他之后,其他人都非常友善。那些驾船的驾驶员都很棒,对速度的掌控也恰到好处……他们会回头看看我们,等待我们竖起大拇指表示认可……这个细节真贴心。
我对水上摩托艇的安全功能印象颇深。它们配备了GPS限速器,能在靠近岸边时自动减速;一旦有两辆摩托艇的距离小于100米……进入深海后就可以尽情加速了,速度之快绝对能带来无穷乐趣。真的很不错,花100欧元也物有所值。
“疯狂UFO”项目也极其有趣。不算太疯狂,也没人掉下来……驾驶者依然把车控制得很好。
“飞鱼”这个项目简直疯狂至极。我妻子没和我们一起玩,因为玩这个需要极强的握力才行……它基本上就是一个上面坐着三个人的风筝。每人有两次体验机会,而且只能朝一个方向起飞。虽然算是一次冒险体验,但我觉得要是玩“环形滑车”之类的项目可能会更有趣。不过,驾驶者出色的操控能力以及严格的安全检查还是让我这个做父亲的对司机心生感激。我必须提一下照片和视频服务。Banana Water Sports会用无人机来拍摄照片和视频……照片的费用是15欧元,如果还要包含无人机拍摄的视频,价格则是35欧元。我觉得这个价格相当划算;去年我们在墨西哥时,同样的服务要贵得多。这些照片真的为这次旅行增色不少,因为我们原本没指望能留下任何游玩时的记录。照片构图合理、对焦准确且画质优良。我们拍到了很多很棒的照片,因此非常满意。摄影团队的成员们都非常友善,而前台的布拉德·皮特倒是可以向他们学学如何与人交流。
总的来说,这是一家极其专业且能力出色的公司,我完全放心把家人交给他们照顾。以我在其他国家的经验来看,他们的收费并不算昂贵,提供的设备质量也很好,因此我非常满意。感谢Banana Watersport!
