Also, on the sea day Palo offers brunch (NOT to be missed!!) and there are loads of activities, some (like a galley tour) not offered on the 3 day trips.
These are all the reasons that the 4 day option is superior to the 3 day one. If that's your only choice (3 or 4 days) definitely go with the 4 days. The sea day makes you really feel you were on a cruise and got away. Have fun!
