Super friendly staff and had great swimming spots with lots of fish that were perfect for Instagram. The captain caught an octopus and let the group hold it which was the highlight of our trip. Lunch was really good and quickly prepared so by the time you’re finished swimming, you can start eating. This is definitely a good way to get a sneak peek of the waters around Antiparos.

    Amy_A, Aug 2025
    The food was yummy and the crew was awesome. The captain caught a couple octopuses and let us hold them. So fun. The crew members were very hospitable and helpful. Jumping from the cliff was fun and the snorkeling was pretty cool in that area and near the sea caves. Overall a great day!

    The best way to sample the different beaches/places to swim around Antiparos. The crew - Captain Nektarios and Paris were super friendly and fun, the boat had a great music and vibe, and the locations that we visited in the Aegean around Antiparos were breathtakingly beautiful. Highly recommend for a different way to see Antiparos - by sea.

    Great way to spend the day! Several swimming spots and lots of time to enjoy the water. Food served was delicious and beverages were included during the entire length of the tour. Put on sunscreen several times throughout the trip to avoid burning. Crew was nice.

    The trip fulfilled our expectations. The schedule was just as described and the places we visited were amazing. The lunch was delicious with fresh seafood, pasta and salad, also in big quantities. Also we had water, soda during the whole trip and we also had beers and wine. The crew was spectacular, in a great mood, explaining everything and happy to help. We completely recommend this tour.

    Great experience, highly recommend. The food was very good and had vegetarian options, along with soft drinks and alcohol. Pleasant captain and wonderful interns working on the boat. The swim stops were about 30 minutes each. Don’t hesitate to book, I would gladly do it again.

    Very well organized day out on a traditional fishing boat with Captain and Caterina- easy to find Eurodive in Pounda, all staff were really nice, and the food and the sailing were lovely.5 stops to swim or snorkel, and when the weather turned bad, Captain found a sunny spot for us to hang out until it cleared- don't miss this experience with this tour group

    A must do while visiting Paros. Chris and Kostas were incredible host with sharing their local knowledge of the area.

    Lauren_L, Oct 2024
    Fantastic experience from start to finish. We were able to stop at all of the swimming areas due to favorable weather. Sea caves were unforgettable. The boat has comfortable cushions all on the front and sides to sit. The lunch provided was delicious. We all went back for seconds! Octopus, salad, and the spaghetti with shrimp were our favorites. Unlimited soft drinks, water, wine and beer. Our favorite day in Paros!

    Magical Mediterranean Moments

    Margaret_P, Sep 2024
    This trip was a fantastic experience. The crew were so friendly and helpful. Harry our host was especially knowledgeable and friendly. We went to many different sites, stopping for a swim, or even a cliff jump. They served us amazing food, including fresh fruit snacks, and a Mediterranean lunch, and some drinks. At one point towards the end of the day, the captain had caught an octopus and let us hold it. An amazing trip. Highly recommended!

    Great locations

    Georgia_P, Sep 2024
    The destinations are great ! The blue lagoon and a few of the places along the way have the most incredible water. Communication with the company was also easy. My trip details weren’t uodated online and the time for the trip had been moved, however they provided me with a refund and got me onto an another similar cruise as soon as possible. So this review relates to the blue lagoon cruise that I was moved to. Definitely bring snacks as there was only fruit in board. Boat is also a bit old and very crowded, so if you are after a peaceful cruise, maybe consider hiring a boat instead.

    Best boat trip ever!...

    Paige_A, Sep 2024

    Courtney_A, Sep 2024
    This was a very relaxing and enjoyable day cruise! The crew were very nice and attentive. You get to enjoy each spot without feeling rushed if you wish to swim and explore at each area. Food and refreshments were plentiful!

    AMAZING!

    Amelia_L, Jun 2024
    This tour is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend it to anyone who is travelling in Paros, it was definitely our favourite day overall.
