“We loved our day aboard the Catamaran! We try to do a boat trip every summer but this was a little more expensive than we usually pay. As we wanted a Catamaran and not a sailing boat, we decided to go for it and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. The captain gave us a briefing before we left and explained that it is an inclusive vessel where we are all valued equally and are a team for the day.

This was a luxury experience with 2 swimming spots out in the ocean, snorkelling gear provided, unlimited refreshments and a hot meal prepared by Claudia. Claudia really impressed as a combined deck/stew/chef and both her and Captain Bill were happy to answer questions about the industry. This was our favourite activity in Athens which included other water and island day tours.”
