Very friendly welcome from the captain and crew. A breathtaking view. Swimming with masks and snorkels in crystal-clear water. Several opportunities to fish and catch fish that Ilias is happy to detail and cook for you. The entire crew is lovely and is at your complete disposal to ensure you have an unforgettable time. Thank you again to them for their kindness and love for their island!
If you’re even thinking about booking this semi‑private fishing tour, do yourself a favor and book it now. This was hands‑down the most memorable day of my entire stay in Santorini. From the moment we stepped on the boat, the crew made us feel like old friends. Their energy, humor, and genuine passion for the sea set the tone for an incredible experience. They shared stories about local fishing traditions, explained every step of the process, and made sure everyone felt confident and included. The fishing itself was a blast. We caught a surprising variety of fish, and the crew celebrated every catch like it was a trophy. But the real magic came afterward: they prepared the freshest, most delicious meal right on board using the fish we caught. Imagine grilled fillets, Greek salads, homemade dips, and ice‑cold drinks, all while anchored in a quiet turquoise cove with the caldera cliffs rising around you. Pure bliss. What really stood out was the balance of adventure and relaxation. Plenty of time to fish, plenty of time to swim, and plenty of time to just soak in the scenery. The semi‑private setup made it feel intimate and personalized without being crowded. This tour gave us a completely different perspective of Santorini — away from the busy streets and into the heart of island life. Worth every euro and then some. Highly, highly recommend. If you want a day that’s equal parts fun, authentic, and unforgettable, this is it.
This is our 2nd time on this trip. The first was 8 years ago. We had to bring our family back with us this time so they could experience this day trip as well. This experience was the one thing we had planned for our Santorini trip and our adult children said it was the best thing we’ve done on our 18 day trip in Greece.
It was a great experience. The crew was very thoughtful in guiding us fishing and the cooking skills were great and worth a visit.
Get few hours out they did their best to accommodate you caught a few fish helped with the nets everything you needed
This was the most excellent tour from start to finish! My husband and I are in Santorini for our honeymoon and he loves fishing. I booked this tour and I’m so glad we did! The entire crew was phenomenal. We didn’t just enjoy the fish, fishing, swimming… but learning about Greek culture and history . Elias has a large variety of knowledge about fishing and also Greece in general! Mohammad was excellent at explaining and teaching us how to get the fish from the nets and Nick was a phenomenal captain and cook! This was the most perfect day and experience and the people we spent it with was one of the best parts! A memory / experiance we will cherish forever
We had an incredible experience on this fishing tour! The small group size made it feel so cozy and personalized, with the guide being super attentive to everyone’s needs. They provided a clear and engaging explanation of the fishing activities and introduced us to different fish species, which was both educational and fun. The proactive photography was a highlight—they captured stunning photos of us and the scenery, making for unforgettable memories. Highly recommend this tour for a relaxing, well-organized, and picturesque fishing adventure!
Amazing experience. Food was great. The crew members made sure we were all taken care of. They were very organized in picking us up from hotel and dropping us back off. Very stress free and relaxing.
The entire experience was amazing. They picked us up and immediately took care of everything for the rest of our trip! The boat was wonderful, we got a ton of fish and the lunch that was prepared was one of the most memorable meals on our trip! We were able to swim and snorkel between fishing and eating. It was truly a magical day. We learned so many techniques and local fish varieties I can not recommend this experience enough!
The food was healthy and tasty. Fried and grill fish… lots of it. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
