Great experience! Very friendly staff and there was plenty of room on board for all passengers to experience the submarine windows! This is the best one I've been on and the first time for my kids who also absolutely loved it!

The crew was exceptionally nice and friendly. Even though there were not many people on board, they still took us on a wonderful trip around one of the bays of Rhodes. We spent the time drinking, swimming, and having a lot of fun. The view from belowe the deck was stunning. Totally worth recommending!

Fabulous Afternoon at Sea

polly, Aug 2025

Great fun trip for the children, parents and the grandparents on the Monday from St Paul's. The youngest got to steer the boat out to sea. We all got to see the sealife...the kids fed the fish..some of us swam in the sea and one of us lost their hat and another found it floating in the sea! They are a great team onboard the hipposub and made us all feel welcome...had a great time , would do it again

Lovely trip around the coastline from Lindos. The crew were great, really friendly and fun. There is aircon inside the boat where the viewing area is and a range of soft drinks on board. Also a toilet. We all really enjoyed the experience and would recommend as good value.
