Begin the tour at Heraklion harbor in the morning and be greeted by a healthy Mediterranean breakfast on board. Meet the captain and crew and undergo a safety briefing before setting sail for Dia.

    AMAZING! Yani, George and Maria/Marianna (apologies for poor/incorrect name spelling haha) made the trip even more unforgettable. They brought energy, educational facts and activities to the trip! They got everyone involved and made it feel personal. The trip itself was incredible. Snacks and drinks onboard at all times and a gorgeous fish and salad meal at lunchtime. The trip out there was smooth and when we got to the island we were met with some fun facts and stories about it. We then could explore as we wished with snorkels, flippers, paddle boards and inflatables! Clear, blue and still water full of wildlife was super fun to explore. Overall completely worth the money and was an unreal experience

    Alex et Sergei les membres d'équipage étaient au top, drôles, professionnels. L'excursion était bluffant, le temps était au rendez-vous avec beaucoup de soleil. On a pu plonger aux abords de l'île de Dia et explorer les fonds marins en apnée. Le seul bémol reste la pauvreté de la faune et flore sous marine dans ce secteur. L'excursion serait encore meilleure si on pouvait visiter l'île et avoir une visite historique de celle-ci. Je recommande même aux locaux c'est à faire au moins une fois. Ps: Alex a préparé les plats du midi comme personne c'était succulent.

    Wir haben spontan ein Tag vorher die Tour vom Vormittag auf Nachmittags verschoben ohne Probleme. Die Mitarbeiter sind super freundlich Die Bootstour war von Anfang bis Ende super organisiert Verpflegung und lustige Unterhaltung inklusive. Das Essen und die Getränke waren Super lecker! Die Bucht von der Insel Dia ist Wunderschön Wir waren Schnorcheln und habe viele Fische, Seesterne, kleine Quallen und Krebse gesehen. Einfach ein Traum! Nur zu Empfehlen ist jeden Cent wert!
