“Overall the trip was great. The shipwreck visit was the best part, although it’s quite a distance to swim from the boat to the wreck. The stop at the blue lagoon and lunch are what let it down. They advertise as having a beach bar for lunch, but it’s a simple kitchen right behind a nice beach bar. Lunch was pretty dreadful. You aren’t able to sit in the actual beach bar unless you buy a drink (€13 a cocktail), so instead end up sitting on a pathway in the minimal shade available. We were also told that once assigned a seat on the boat, you’re unable to move, which…”
