Amy – United Kingdom

So glad we booked this boat trip, had an an hour at each snorkel stop which was great, gave us plenty of time for swimming. Food was nice and we had unlimited wine, beer and soft drinks. They also played music so turned into a bit of a party on the way back which was fun. Would definitely recommend :)

Jodie – United Kingdom

The crew were lovely and welcoming, and the food was delicious. You will be taken to lots of scenic bays and given time to swim and snorkel around different areas (masks and snorkel provided). If you have a waterproof camera or bag to put phones in, I would highly recommend. We didn't think if this, and wished we'd snapped some photos in the water or once we'd swam over to the caves, beaches and rocks. If you have any food restrictions, let them know when you arrive. The Greek buffet for us was bread rolls, roasted vegetables, Greek salad and a chicken and onion pasta. We went in mid-October, so the boat was not as busy as I imagine it would be in peak season. We had plenty of space, and no queue for wine top-ups, in fact, they came direct to our seats with the carafe!

Full description

From 9:45am onward, We welcome you on board Romantika Dreams and help you get settled on one of our decks. Get comfortable, relax.

At 10:15, as we leave the historic Mandraki old port and cruise along the East Coastline, be ready to admire significant attractions and landmarks such as St. Nicholas Fortress, The Medieval old city, the Cathedral of St John the Evangelist, Fontana Grande, Rams Rock etc.

First, we drop anchor in Kalithea Bay that features the famous Kalithea Springs, a magnificent seaside Monument, that offers visitors a unique combination of nature, architecture and history. We stay long enough for you to take it all in and swim, snorkel, dive, take pictures or simply enjoy the deck and the music.

Three horns by the Captain signify departure and we continue cruising further to the South past Faliraki towards Afandou, our next stop, a 4 km stretch of beach featuring the Caves of Traganou. Again you will have plenty of time to swim, walk on the beach, explore the caves, jump off the rocks or the boat’s high or lower decks and build an appetite, while we set up our lunch buffet freshly prepared on board. Our menu includes traditional Greek recipes, as well as vegetarian dishes! Throughout the cruise we serve you chilled local white and rose wine, unlimited! Additionally, there is a Bar with "happy prices" that sells delicious cocktails and champaign !

Three horns and back on board to enjoy the delicious lunch and cruise next to huge imposing rock formations that lead to the landmark bay named after the actor Anthony Quinn (He fell in love and bought the land while filming “Guns of Navarone” which was reclaimed by the Greek Government in 1984). Last stop to enjoy the natural beauty of the miniature bay, the water activities or the Happy hour at the Bar. Depending on the mood and vibes, you can find yourself singing and dancing or learning the Greek Zorba dance…

Time to head back to Mandraki port (arrival 4:15pm). Full of new experiences, beautiful images, good food and drinks and perhaps new friends we say

Thank you for sailing with us and Goodbye!
