Amazing boat trip, highly recommended - This was an excellent trip! Great value for money compared to the ones from tour operators. Very well organised. I was well looked after from start to finish. Hospitality was fantastic on the transport and the boat, we had a lunch, raki and watermelon included in the price. Drinks and snacks on the boat priced reasonably too.. the boat was spacious and plenty of room to sit and sunbathe etc, swimming stops were in incredible blue and calm waters. Book this trip!

Fun day out - Our family of 4 really enjoyed this trip, which was one of the highlights of our holiday. The guide was friendly and very informative. The beach is small and crowded but we just stayed at the boat jumping in and looking at all the fish. Jumping from the top deck of the boat at the second stop was lots of fun but not for everyone. We booked through our hotel manager at Ourania apartments who seemed very keen to promote it and although she said that she had personally been on the trip recently (kickback) she failed to advise us that the transfer was a 2hr coach journey. The coach was nice and had air conditioning but it felt as much of a bus trip as a boat trip. I would recommend the trip but there are some preparations that could improve your experience. 1. take a picnic lunch and some drinks. Our pickup up was at 11:30 and the cold hotdog lunch was only served at 16:00. 2. Take goggles or even better a snorkel and mask - the water is crystal clear and like swimming in an aquarium with shoals of colourful fish. Also, be prepared for a long bus journey!

One star deduction for: - After booking we received all the necessary information we needed. At the agreed meeting point we had to wait a moment as the bus that collected the rest of the group was delayed. At over 30 degrees, that was a bit exhausting. The boat trip was nice with great views of the north coast. Bathing in the sea did well, with the targeted beach section being very crowded. It should also be mentioned that the tour is less suitable for young children, as the second bathing stop is in a bay without a beach and a water depth of at least 8 meters. As for supplies, it should be said: the hot dogs did not have to be and we missed the announced, bottled drinking water on board. Overall, it was a nice experience, but with a star trigger as air is up.
