MEMORABLE SEA EXPERIENCES

GREGORIO CAÑELLAS

– Meet The Sea Founder

Meet the Sea is the result of my love for the sea for and what it has given me over the years. Early memories of happy moments with my family, an understanding of the importance of the sea in our lives and the desire to promote the respect and protection it deserves.

Our team love to share our passion with you through carefully designed experiences that combine education and entertainment for children and adults in the beautiful sea of Ibiza.

We are particularly thrilled to begin our “School trips” programme that welcomes students from international schools to enjoy and love the sea as much as we do. Today’s individual cannot ignore the importance of the role played by oceans in the present of our planet.

See you at Sea!

We had a great day out. All the staff were fantastic at helping with the children and teaching them about the sea and the creatures and plants in it.

My son, wife and I had a brilliant time on this trip. From the moment the boat arrived we were made to feel welcome, all the staff could not do enough to look after. With a nervous son who had never swam in the ocean , to a son who was jumping off the boat we can not thank them enough.We were all encouraged to get in to the water and give it a try, so glad we did. We got to see a lot of sea life, touched a sea urchin, sea slug and even an octopus.There was plenty of room on the boat, a wc, a small shop selling cold drinks and crisps I think a few quests even had a beer.We had a lovely dinner of cooked chicken, which my fussy son eat and enjoyed.I would recommend this trip to beginners, or professional snorkels, and will be visiting next time we come to Ibiza.Thank you to all of the staff, for making us feel so welcome. Diolch Yn Fawr.

Amazing friendly run business ! Had the best experience with my daughter swimming in the ocean, stroked an octopus and fed the fish our left over chicken from our provided lunch within the service. So welcoming and friendly! Had a tour after snorkelling around the coast. Refreshments provided! Would highly recommend this trip ! We will definitely be doing this again with these amazing people. The tour guide was like a fish to water and was fantastic with the children. Five stars all round ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had such a great day! Greg and his team are amazing hosts and my kids - 8yo boy and 7yo girl - had so much fun swimming in the sea and experiencing the beautiful sea life.We were more than 4 hours on the sea, so feel like we got plenty of value for money.Thanks to the whole Meet The Sea crew!

Incredible experience. Staff are all amazing and really make it such a personal experience. My boys, aged 4 and 7, spent hours snorkelling, swimming and learning about the different sea creatures Greg and his team found. 100% would recommend to anyone wishing to explore the sea. Great for beginners up to more advanced.Thanks for a wonderful trip and helping our kids make lifelong memories!

We've just arrived back from our trip with meet the sea and I can honestly say it was incredible. We are a family of 3 with a 7 year old. I'm not a great fan of the sea but the whole time I felt safe and was encouraged to break out my comfort zone.The trip was extremely educational for the children (& adults) and everything was explained in such detail. We never felt rushed while in the water and felt very safe as there was a life guard/swim coach onboard/ in the water.After we done our snorkeling we had a spot of lunch and the kids got to do a treasure hunt with a pirate which our daughter loved.You can honestly see and hear the passion for the sea from them all. I would highly recommend it was a great trip.

Phenomenal! Well worth the money!This was the best part of our trip by a country mile!!!The tour is very personalised, and what’s more really educational. Their mantra is to demystify what lays beneath the water so children don’t fear it.Our daughter was petrified at first, thus we were about to write off going in the water and stay on the boat, but then Greg spent so much time reassuring her that we swam to the private island and then struggled to get her back on the boat.Greg is a legend, and so are his crew - you won’t regret going on the trip it really was incredible!!!

Great fun! Wonderful trip and great way to spend the day in Ibiza. My husband and I were coming into Ibiza from a cruise and this trip was one of our favorite days of the entire trip. The scenery is beautiful and Greg and his team are super helpful. It is 100% family friendly. While the snorkeling is not the caliber of Hawaii or other destinations, the water was great and it makes for a relaxing day with a mix of snorkling/water time and a boat tour.

Wouldn’t go The elderly lady who was also on the boat hanging around (her son was the main person) was an absolute witch. Absolutely terrible person. Judging the small children when they didn’t want to swim etc. wasn’t a comfortable experience. I wouldn’t ever do this trip again. And the woman who was pretending to be a pirate was also talking to the staff about everyone and laughing. Horrible people apart from the main person who was running the show. Wouldn’t recommend. Waste of money. One positive was the beautiful views

Excellent experience Fantastic experience & great value for money. The enthusiasm of the team and crew on the boat shone through & was very infectious. Everything was explained well, there was plenty of time to see everything & great support provided, so that those not so confident in the water, felt comfortable and were able to get the full benefit of the experience. Highlight was feeding the fish after lunch. A great experience never to be forgotten.

Highly recommend What can I say, this is amazing for all ages and well worth every penny. Giving the children something different to see things they wouldn’t normally see opening up a complete new world under water. Personally I was surprised how quick their confidence grew in the water. Back on the boat there was food laid on The food was chicken and delicious too nothing goes to waste even the fish enjoyed the left overs I would highly recommend this educational trip and will definitely go again in the future when we return to Ibiza Thanks again it was amazing

Amazing day! Don’t miss this trip, it’s brilliant. Wow, what can I say that gives Greg and the team the credit they deserve. This was the highlight of our holiday and I would thoroughly recommend it. Greg’s passion for the ocean, and sharing the ocean with children was totally inspiring. We received a warm welcome by Greg, his mum, and his team Jessie and another lady and man whose names I didn’t catch. They were all so helpful and couldn’t do enough to make the trip amazing for everyone. Greg started by telling his story and how he came to love the sea so much, and he feels it’s so important for children to not only experience it but to become comfortable in it. Safety, enjoyment and confidence is what he wants to achieve for everyone on board, especially the children. He explained the day, and some of the animals we would see on the snorkelling tour. They then kitted everyone out personally with snorkels and life vests if needed, and encouraged everyone to get into the water to give it a try. Our 2 year old has never been in the sea before but with their encouragement she was so excited to give it a try. They helped her climb down the ladder and into the sea. The minute someone wanted to come back on the boat there was a member of the team there to help. They have thought of everything, life rings to old onto, paddle boards, noodles to help the adults and life vests for the kids. Greg’s mum in particular was so amazing with the children. Greg and Jessie then took groups out 7/8 people at a time on a snorkelling tour of the nature reserve. He was so knowledgeable, diving down to get urchins and Sean cucumbers for you to hold and learn about. He explained the sea grass and creatures that we saw. Greg even did a 3rd tour for those who didn’t get a chance to go on one of the first 2 trips. Back on board we were served a lunch of chicken and crisps. There was a bar to buy drinks from. There was a pirate to entertain the kids, colouring, sweetie treasure hunt. Just lovely. Such an incredibly well thought out trip that was thoroughly enjoyable and I would 100% recommend to any children and adults, especially if you a little nervous of getting in the sea.

A must do family experience This is hands down the highlight of our holiday. I really can not recommend enough. The team are fantastic, any nervous sea swimmers are easily made to feel confident. My 5 yr old was nervous and not sure but soon settled and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Greg is so enthusiastic about the sea and that makes for an easy experience. He really does look after you. Lunch after your swim is provided which is lovely eating on the upper deck enjoying the views and sun. If you looking for a family experience away from theme parks then this is a must!! Wish I could do it all again

Make sure you take this trip! This trip was fantastic, from start to finish. It was informative, safe and great fun. The whole team were super helpful and insightful, especially Greg, who led the tour. We also had the pleasure of meeting his mother who was charming, just like the rest of the team. We had our 14, 11 and 5 year olds with us and there was support, encouragement and fun for all of them. Plus they learnt so much about the sea flora and fauna and got to touch a sea cucumber...which wasn't for everyone! We held sea urchins, observed lots of native fish and even an octopus. Lunch was served on board and we had a chance for a good turn on the paddle boards as well when we were all snorkelled out. I cannot recommend this trip enough to families who are in and around San Antonio (we actually caught the boat at Port D'es Torrent).

The team that felt like family! What a fantastic trip with such kind and friendly hosts! Their knowledge of the sea and its creatures was brilliant! We were thrilled to have had such an adventure with Greg and the team! The hospitality was great, the children's activities were inclusive; and the thought the team put into putting nervous toddlers and a small child at ease with the sea was very much appreciated! It was also wonderful to not be rushed at all! Such a fab afternoon! This trip was unique, fun and well worth it!

Fantastic What a fabulous day out, Greg’s enthusiasm for the sea is infectious and he and the team are genuinely lovely people. He was full of interesting information & helped my youngest 8, who isn’t keen on open water, to begin to conquer his fear. The bar is reasonably priced and food was tasty. The trip wasn’t overcrowded so there was plenty room to move around the boat in and out of the sunshine. Would 100% recommend to anyone planning to take children snorkelling.

Best family boat trip Honestly could not recommend this trip enough. Greg and his team were amazing. I have always been scared of the open water and swimming with fish around but with Greg he made me and my family (children 6 - non swimmer & 10) feel extremely comfortable in the sea. His knowledge of the sea is incredible, he taught us about sea urchins, sea grass, sea cucumbers and much more. If you have children who have never been snorkelling before this is possible the best place to start.
