    My grandson and I took a vacation to Athens together and he selected this excursion - we are both very happy he did! The views are beautiful. The crew was exceptional! Friendly, patient, and kind. They are very knowledgeable about fishing and the area. The crew provided the support for our level of skill, and were very patient with this being my first time fishing. They were encouraging and determined that we would end the day successful - which we did! An amazing lunch of various Mediterranean dishes was prepared by our Captain including several using the fish caught that morning. At the end of the excursion we didn’t feel like it was just another vendor led tour; but rather we spent the morning talking and laughing with friends we won’t soon forget. I would highly recommend this excursion not only for the views and the fishing; but for the amazing crew.

    The day could not be better. Our guide was extremely kind, the fish were biting, the sun shinning. The only thing better than the fishing was lunch. A delicious feast cooked right on the boat.

    Last-minute fishing trip

    Constantinos (spelling?) and his uncle, the captain were warm, inviting and welcoming. The captain was very enthusiastic about making sure we got fish. There were snacks and drinks during the trip. Captain cooked a delicious meal using the red snapper that we caught about 1.3 kg. We also caught a large gilt head, maybe 1.3 kg. Caught some smaller fish that we threw back. There was salad, bread, a tomato based shrimp dish, the spinach, Filo dough things that you see all over in Greece, it was too much food! There is also a small butt clean bathroom on board, and a couple hand sanitizers on deck. I noticed the nephew use hands sanitizer throughout the trip and the captains food prep was clean and cemetery. He also scrubbed down his small galley after he prepared all the food. Nephew helped wash, dry and put away the dishes when we done eating. Will definitely do it again if we were back in Athens.

    Father and daughter. Fishing Day Out.

    This was for my brother Jim and his daughter Sandra. Here's what they wanted me to say about their wonderful fishing trip. " It was the best experience we had in Greece and that it is something we would do a hundred times over! The captain is the best there was at this and that there is no other fishing excursions like this one! You must do it if you are in Greece! It was the best food we had in Greece! Truly an amazing experience! Something unforgettable, and brought the feeling of an authentic Greek life while also being treated like kings and queens. There is no one that wants you to catch a huge fish more than the captain! His heart and soul is in this and it shows! It was the best!!"

    WOW!!! This trip was so so so much fun! My husband and I go on a fishing trip everywhere place we go, and the service on this trip was excellent! We caught snappers and a huge grouper! The captain and his nephew cooked the fish with another beautiful meal for us right on the boat as we were floating around the Aegean Sea. We were so impressed. Thank you for such amenities memorable trip.

    Awesome way to spend a day

    Mattias_D, Jun 2024
    An excellent way to spend a day on the water and a day in Greece. Definitely going to be a highlight of my trip and I would 100% do it again or recommend it to a friend. Caught good fish, the skipper was an excellent chef and Mike went above and beyond to make sure I had a great time and learnt a thing or two. Was very satisfied with my experience, cheers guys!

    Amazing trip full of beautiful Views and fishing.

    Carleigh_P, Oct 2023
    Eating fresh just caught fish surrounded by the Greek island on the sea. Jumping in the ocean for a quick swim before lunch and catching over 20 fish. Everything about this trip was amazing I would highly highly recommend it.

    Fin-tastic Fishing Trip!

    Ben_G, Jun 2023
    We had an incredible time out on the water fishing and eating our perfectly prepared catch right on the boat! There was a whole spread of delicious homemade food. The water was blue and breathtakingly beautiful. Our tour guide and boat captain were so welcoming, knowledgeable and accommodating. My husband caught about 15 fish and I only got 3, but one of mine was a big beautiful flounder. This tour is well worth the time and money. We had so much fun and 10/10 recommend booking this fishing trip.
