They took us to the most beautiful spots and always took the time to explain the surroundings and share interesting facts. What stood out the most was their warm hospitality and how relaxed the atmosphere on board was. The breathtaking scenery and crystal-clear waters made the whole experience even better.

Down side for us was it was a 2.5 hr sail down to the south of the island and rina cave, where we stopped for a while for lunch and swimming. The beach wasnt very impressive and it seemed a long way to go just to see the cave, when we could have gone to somewhere prettier eg Fousonissi. We did stop for swims at Alykis and Mikra vigla on the way back which were nice. We realise we take a chance on boat trips…”
