The guides were so friendly and amazing - we had Chris leading our group and he was lovely. Incredible experience, regardless of swimming ability.
Unfortunately we had to rearrange our trip due to illness, they were very accommodating and helpful. We really enjoyed our afternoon, everything was well organised the staff were friendly and very informative. The equipment was good and we managed to see a few turtles and fish despite the sea being a bit choppy. The guides were very reassuring for the less confident swimmers and made everyone feel comfortable. The pictures and videos we received were great, I would definitely recommend this trip and 100% come back.
Excellent experience from start to finish. Pick-up was on time, communication was excellent throughout, and the safety briefing was clear and reassuring. We felt very safe at all times. Stelios and the whole team were friendly, professional, and made the experience enjoyable. Highly recommended.
The tour was an absolutely wonderful experience :) The guides were super, super nice and were always there to help us with advice and assistance. You felt well taken care of and safe the whole time. The moment we saw the turtles was, of course, a very special and beautiful moment that you will never forget. The provided equipment – diving mask with snorkel, fins, swimming noodle, and scooter – was in top condition and everything worked perfectly. I would definitely book this tour again and can only recommend it 🫶🏼
The team are amazing! Unfortunately we didn’t get the full experience due to unexpected conditions so trip was cut short however this is obviously not the company’s fault!! All the staff were great and made sure you felt comfortable and safe and understood how to use the equipment. They were also very apologetic about the cancellation even though it was out of their control and offered us a full refund! Would definitely come back to see the turtles with these guys :)
We had a great afternoon snorkeling with the turtles. Stelios, Chris and the team did a great job! Lots of information about the turtles, their nesting and the different types in the area, also some nice info about the local area and its history. We got a fun safety briefing, instructions on how to use the equipment and what to expect. We felt very safe as there were 4 guides and Stelios in a kayak looking out for turtles and our safety. The sea scooters were great fun and really helped if you want to dive a bit deeper to see the fish or help swim along. We saw two loggerhead turtles a male and a female, the male was huge! I swam alongside him for sometime it was amazing. I think this experience is good value for money, you get all the equipment, safety, local knowledge, good banter and most importantly where to find the turtles. Once back on land the team had lots of water and fresh melon waiting for everyone, photos of the trip were available immediately via what's app and to top it all off the team made sure everyone got back to their accommodation or wherever they wanted to be dropped off. We felt valued as customers and guys clearly enjoy their jobs. I can easily recommend this experience!
The most amazing experience with a Chris and his team! I brought this as a gift for my partners birthday. Although I’m also petrified of the sea, the whole team went above and beyond to ensure I was ok. The team are so knowledgeable about turtles and the conservation in the local area. We managed to see 3 turtles during our time in the water, and even got up close to 2 of them! The photos that were provided at no extra cost were amazing and definitely an added bonus that we can share with our friends and family back home.
The team consisted for 4. They all were very experienced, friendly and professional. I would highly recommend booking with them if you want to experience snorkelling. It the kids and my first time snorkelling. The experience was very well managed and we came away saying we would do it again. We were also very fortunate in spotting a logger head turtle. We sent amount 1.5 hours in the water. The reason for 4 stars only is because I expected to see more in that amount of time. I understand turtles are solitary creatures but I thought we would see several during that time, albeit swimming alone. It would say, if you want to see more sea life, this isn't the spot for it. But if you want to experience snorkelling and see 1 to 2 turtles, hopefully, then definitely an experience. Cannot recommend the team more highly. Thank you for the experience.
★★★★★ 5/5 Stars isn’t enough. I’d happily give Sea Adventure 1,000 stars! We booked the turtle snorkelling experience for Monday, 15 June, but unfortunately the turtles didn’t appear that day. While that was nobody’s fault, the team at Sea Adventure went above and beyond and invited us back on Wednesday, completely free of charge, so that we could have the experience we had travelled for. And what an experience it was! From the moment we arrived, every member of the team treated us with kindness, care and professionalism. They provided everything we needed, including snorkelling equipment and underwater scooters, and shared fascinating stories about the area and its history along the way. Today, thanks to their dedication and generosity, we were lucky enough to swim surrounded by sea turtles. It was absolutely magical. The experience with nature was unforgettable, but what truly made this special was the people. The entire team worked together like a family. They were warm, attentive, passionate and genuinely cared about making sure everyone had an amazing time. I am currently in Cyprus celebrating my 40th birthday, and this turned out to be one of the most wonderful gifts I could have received. For a few hours, I genuinely felt like I was in paradise. Thank you, Sea Adventure , for creating memories that will stay with me forever. If you’re considering booking with them, don’t hesitate. You will be in the best possible hands. Highly recommended!
This trip was absolutely amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. Our great host Stelios provided such a great enjoyable experience, with complimentary pick up and drop off. Chris and Leo were also wonderful and helpful. Stelios' customer service was outstanding, he kindly accommodated me when I had a problem with my initial booking and had to change my dates, nothing was too much trouble. The snorkelling activity itself was wonderful and we were super lucky to see 3 individual beautiful turtles, Loggerheads and Green whichi have never seem before, I was over the moon. It was also fun with the sea scooters. Our host also provided complimentary water and all of the snorkelling equipment, they were all super helpful and were efficiently assisting all of their customers. Nothing was too much for these guys, they answered all of my questions and provided loads of free footage for all of the guests, pictures and videos of the memorable experience. Great value for money, a very reasonable cost for what you get. I'd be happy to pay more for this experience. Highly recommend this activity to anyone and would do it again myself in a heartbeat! Thank you very much again Chris, Leo and Stelios!
