Full description
Start your day with a morning cruise to Makri Islet, where you may spot playful bottlenose dolphins swimming near the boat. While you enjoy the view, our marine biologist will share interesting facts about the dolphins, aquaculture, and the local marine ecosystem.
Next, we sail to Stroggyli Islet, a protected area known for its rich sea life. Put on your snorkel gear and dive into the clear waters to explore vibrant marine life. You might even see wild tuna swimming nearby—some weighing up to 200 kilos! Our friendly guides will help you snorkel safely, point out sea creatures like sea urchins and sea stars, and take underwater photos for you.
After snorkeling, we head to the stunning island of Alimia. This uninhabited paradise offers calm waters, beautiful landscapes, and two charming historical churches. Enjoy 1 to 2 hours of leisure time to swim, explore, or simply relax.
At lunchtime, savor a delicious BBQ featuring fresh fish from our local fish farm, Mediterranean salads, and seasonal fruit. Soft drinks and light alcohol are included.
Before returning, we pass Makri Islet again for a final chance to see dolphins playing in the wild. Then we sail back to port, completing a day full of nature, learning, and relaxation.
This trip is perfect for families, couples, and anyone curious about the sea. No previous snorkeling experience is needed—just bring your sense of adventure!
