Wonderful trip booked, just me my partner and two kids, booked for my fishing obsessed 11 year old son for his first sea fishing experience, we all enjoyed it even my teenage daughter, wonderful homemade food on board and plenty of drink. Would recommend to book for a trip out.

We had an amazing time on the water with Manolis and his crew. I was traveling with my husband and two teenagers who enjoy fishing. We went out into the beautiful waters of crete and spent a few hours fishing and enjoying time on the boat. Manoli even took us to a private beach , where we were able to dive off the boat and swim. we got to enjoy quiet time on a beautiful beach off the coast of crete. Manoli and his crew are very hospitable and we enjoyed snacks, refreshments and delicious fruit during the trip. Overall it was a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this trip.
