Full description
Start your day with a cruise to Makri Islet, where you may spot playful bottlenose dolphins swimming near the boat. As you enjoy the view, our marine biologist will share interesting facts about the dolphins, aquaculture, and the local marine ecosystem.
From there, we head to Stroggyli Islet, located in a protected area known for its rich marine life. Put your snorkel gear and dive into the crystal-clear waters to explore the underwater world. You may even see wild tuna swimming nearby, some weighing up to 200 kilos. Our guides will assist you during the snorkeling session, point out marine creatures such as sea urchins and sea stars, and capture underwater photos of your experience.
On the way back, we pass by Makri Islet once again, offering another opportunity to see dolphins in the wild. This experience is perfect for families, couples, and anyone who enjoys nature and the sea. No previous snorkeling experience is required—just bring your curiosity and a sense of adventure.

Know before you go
- The activity includes a boat trip with swimming and snorkeling. Please bring swimwear and towels.
- We visit wild dolphins in their natural habitat. While there is a high chance (about 90%) of spotting them, sightings cannot be guaranteed.
- For pickups in the far south of the island (Lindos, Kiotari, Pefkos, etc.), please contact us before booking, as transfers from these locations require prior arrangement. Pickup can usually be arranged upon request and may involve an additional charge due to the distance.
