Full description

What about a daily fishing tour combined with swimming in crystal clear blue sea? Starting off at the renowned fishing village of Elounda, you will board a small boat and when you are out in the open sea a local fisherman will show you various fishing techniques and will help you catch your fish. Enjoy your time by fishing with rod. Then it is time to swim and do snorkeling in the clear crystal sea of Elounda bay and enjoy the serenity of the place. The tour ends with a delicious meal onboard, including the fishes that you have catched, during our return to the port.
The excursion can take place at different times of the day (08:00-14:00 / 15:00-21:00).
The calculated time includes the transfer time to the boat and return.

We went out with another couple so it was nice. Our guide was lovely, the whole trip was well organised by Cretan Vioma as always. Our boat driver was very polite and friendly. Our guide brought out water and cake at the start of the trip. The fishing was a great experience for well experienced people to myself, a complete newbie. We fished on various spots around Elounda and seen some great sights. Plenty of photo opportunities to be taken in the boat. All the fish we caught was cooked and was cooked lovely, so much flavour. It was served with salad and bread which was very filling. We were taken to a little quieter area where we could swim and relax while lunch was cooked. Drinks are supplied on the trip. Very clean toilet as well. overall highly recommended trip.
