We went out a group of 6 adults and 5 children (10-17 years) at sunrise. Giorgos and his team had an amazing ability to capture our interest in Zakynthos history and fishing while allowing us to enjoy a tour of the sea with baths from the boat, snorkeling, local food and drinks.
We got to see how it works when experienced fishermen lay nets and we then got to enjoy the freshly caught fish, which was cooked while we were swimming.
We moored at an island where no other boats were allowed, a little bit away from the touristy Turtle Island. The water was magical, we saw traces of turtles on the beaches, but only a little small fish in the water. If you want a genuine full-day excursion - choose this tour over the tourist traps!

We were greeted warmly and offered Greek coffee, juice or water the moment we arrived.
Throughout the day we were offered food and drink which was all delicious.
Giorgos, the Captain has great knowledge of the areas visited and as a member of the marine conservation we visited areas for snorkelling & swimming with no other tourists around.
Watching the nets being casted and collected was hypnotic and fascinating to watch.
The food made from that days catch was really delicious and plentiful and I have no idea where they stored it all!
The whole trip had a personal touch and nothing was too much for the crew Everyone on board was well looked after.
We joined the trip as strangers and all left as friends.
I would highly recommend this trip for young and old, if your a solo traveller this would also be a good trip to join.
Giorgos contacted us the day before to ensure all was well for the next days booking and speaks excellent English.
An incredible day for us and all aboard.
Don’t have second thoughts about booking, you won’t regret it!

This was our third year in Zakynthos, and this tour takes the crown! A truly fantastic experience hosted by the captain who is very knowledgable, informative and also a very nice person.
It really was the highlight pf our holiday!
My boy (8) loved working with the net, getting the fish out and jumping pff the boat while we had a brake on a beach that no one else is allowed to visit. The captain has a special licence and relationship with WWF which allows this tour to happen.
Thank you so much for fitting us in! It was worth every penny! 😀
All the best!

A great welcome and a very familiar atmosphere. Georgiou and his staff explained in detail the concept of sustainable fishing and the meaning of a protected area. We spent a beautiful day having the opportunity to swim in an area not accessible to everyone.... I even had an encounter with a tuna!! Very good fish lunch and the company of our fellow travelers!!

It was an unforgettable day. Absolutely recommended to anyone coming to beautiful Zakynthos. We swam in unique places, ate and drank really well and breathed the life of the fishermen, the culture of the sea and the attachment of the captain and his crew. Sympathy, charisma, professionalism and respect for the territory are a priceless heritage. Book early! 😊

This tour was amazing with Captain Giorgios. Great explanations about the fishing and the island history/surrounding areas, as well as gorgeous secret swim stops. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the island if you have time.

From start till end we had an amazing day with Giorgos and his team.
The atmosphere is perfect , friendly and beautiful. Giorgos explains very nicely and clear about fishing, the island and what he does to keep the sea sustainable.
The tour offers a variety of activities, helping with fishing, snorkling, and talking with eachtother. Furthermore the food is amazing and the boat is very clean.
Best day of the holiday so far !

We had an amazing morning shared fishing tour. The boat was clean and nice and alot of space.
The captain Giorgos and his two collauges was very kind and made us all feel welcomed on board.
We were welcomed with some coffee and a cookie before we go out.
They ask us to join with the nets. Fun thing to do!
Two good swim stops with blue water and good weather. While bathing the staff prepared snacks and lunch.
It was all vert tastefull!

Hiya, we are on holiday there in a few days, arriving 31st May for a week. We tried to book a fishing tour with our tour operators but they said its adults only. My son is almost 10, and would love to come too, otherwise was can't go on the trip. Are children allowed, and if so how much are the tickets?
