Fantastic, extraordinaire, incredible A very nice experience that will remain unforgettable. The afternoon itinerary is the best with a view of the sunset. Be sure to see the Roman sarcophagi! The guides are very friendly. We even saw our favorite basketball player!! Plus the fish, the crabs and more... We recommend
Beautiful cruise and fantastic landscapes! Dives from the boat in the most beautiful waters! Very friendly guides 😀😀
A wonderful adventure! 😎😁 We were novices, and thanks to the team's quick and efficient training, we learned the basics. We set off for a 4-hour trip to the nearest island, Sapienza, making stops along the coast and then a stop at Agia Marina. There were only two boats at Agia Marina, and the water is magnificent—don't forget your masks! 😎 We had a great time. The sea was calm and there was no wind since we left in the morning. It can get rougher in the afternoon, and be careful—the waves can be quite strong. Sunscreen, a t-shirt, and a hat might be necessary. 😉 If, like us, you disembark in the early afternoon, I recommend eating at Modon. It's just a short walk away, and the food is truly excellent. Thanks again to the whole team for your hospitality. If we come back, we will definitely come back for a boat trip.
We rent a 3 hours tour with captain. Every thing was super nice ! New boat ! Captain really nice with us. We could stop twice to swim in the sea and could see many fishes !
Highly recommended ✨ Very helpful and very kind everyone! Paulina thank you very much!!
We had an absolutely fantastic 3 hour tour with all 9 members of our family. Fabulous hospitality, all drop off spots explained with a brief history and the sunset was breathtaking.....along with impromptu dance. Great fun had by all. Highly recommend.
