Morning trip out on the Quad tour, a really enjoyable experience albeit we encountered some rain along the way, however the Quad Safari staff kindly came out and met us along the way in their minibus with some ponchos, which were very much appreciated. Great staff, great views and a great experience. Loved the Olive oil museum and having a mooch around the abandoned ghost town. Highly recommended trip out!
We had an unforgettable evening tour with Quad Safari Crete, taking us through charming, authentic villages and beautiful landscapes — all under the expert and entertaining guidance of our amazing guide, Mr. Sexy (yes, that’s what he calls himself, and it suits his charismatic personality perfectly!). The tour was both exciting and informative. Along the way, we learned about local culture and the history of olive oil production, which Mr. Sexy explained with great knowledge and humor. You could really feel his passion for the region and its traditions. The final part of the ride was absolutely magical — driving through the landscape in the dark, lit only by our ATV headlights and the stars above. It created an unforgettable atmosphere. All in all, a perfect mix of adventure, culture, and great company. We can highly recommend Quad Safari Crete Peninsula to anyone looking to experience a different and authentic side of Crete — and of course, meet Mr. Sexy, who truly is the cherry on top!
Such an amazing experience! We had the best time, it’s so worth the money and the tour guides are excellent. We want to thank ‘Mr Sexy’ for making it such a fun tour to do on our last day of our holiday.
What an incredible time quad biking! From start to finish, the staff were incredibly professional, witty, and genuinely funny, making for a fantastic atmosphere. We chose the sunset ride, and it lived up to all expectations – the views as the sunset over the ocean were absolutely stunning and unforgettable. The first stop was the local olive mill (Striligkas olive mill and museum), which is a brilliant place to visit in its own right, even if you don't take a quad tour. Can't recommend this place enough! Thank you!!
Had a great morning on the Quad bikes, the tour guide ‘Mr Sexy’ was super helpful and funny. First stop was at the Olive Mill where we got to do some tasting and they have lots of different oils available to purchase at such a good value. Second stop was to a ghost village and then the final stop was home to a famous painter - the gyros and fresh orange juice is amazing. Great views throughout the quad biking experience, definitely an experience worth doing while on holiday!
Had amazing time with Quad Safari Peninsula today! A lot of adrenaline , beautiful views and cool information about olive oil production and traditional village life. Our guides did great job providing safety and comfortable travel around the city. And making this trip funny and easy. Special thank you to the Fathi and his team. We want to come back again. If you stay in the aria you for sure must try this tour! 💫
The tour took us on beautiful scenery, and the different stops at the ghost town and olive oil museum were also exciting. Special shoutout to ‘Mr. Sexy’, our tour guide who made this trip even more fun!
Glad I booked it!! It was one of the tours i really enjoyed and want to do again, the staff were really helpful and fun especially ''nadhir dhaouadi'' he made it much more easier and enjoyable. The breath taking views the smooth ride with everything else was just perfect. Worth trying

Süper nice beach. The bay is pretty much immune to wind. It wasn't crowded when we visited and the cafe behind serves many food & drinks and provides showers and WC.
We arrived an hour before sunset on a Sunday and found easy, free parking on the street. A 3 minute walk to the beach and we stopped at a minimarket on the way to buy some water. Now the beach as very little coastline for you to sit on, so you have to choose your spot carefully. You can either rent chairs, knowing the water with rush up under you. You can opt for a small section of sand, knowing that the water will wash away your things. You can grab a spot at the local bars/tavernas/cafes which are open the elements. We, however, walked to the rocks on the cliffside and that was a solid choice! The water is calm and beautiful. I swam around the coastline and was surprised by how many fish were swimming with me! A school of tiny silver fish, thousands of them, hung out with me. There were tiny rainbow fish too. It was beautiful. There are plenty of boats, so be careful. There are also place to jump off the cliff into the water, so be careful of divers too! All in all, if you are near Heraklion, I recommend this nice beach for a day of fun.
Awesome beach with all what you need to enjoy, firstly they have good parking right at the entrance of the beach which is Great… and then shallow water in the start (there is a giant rock that blocks the waves and makes it more fun as you can go with toddlers as well) then goes deep, clear water, pebbles surface, no sticky sand, perfect for sun bathing with the benches available for EUR 5 for full day… (you just occupy the bench and someone will come and take the charges)… great Resturants on the brim and super markets !!! You can buy your beer or other drinks or fruits from the super market to save cost and then go to any restaurant for good food … there is a port-a-loo on the car parking area but otherwise all Resturant’s have washrooms that you can use if you buy something from there… Overall an AWESOME beach to go and spend your day if you are in this part of Crete (just 30 min drive from Heraklion, note the bus service is not good so don’t rely on that rather rent a car)
A beach with clear water. It's very small, so there's little space for sunbathing or umbrellas. A set of umbrellas and loungers costs €10, but it's impossible to find any. Even if you go at 8:00 a.m., everything is occupied only by towels, which I believe are left the night before. People arrive at 10-11:00 a.m. I find this practice very unfair and wouldn't return to this beach for this reason.
A lot of options for free parking. It's 90% rocky beach, but the water is clear. Beautiful and pitoresque landscape nearby, worth everything. Unfortunately, there is little room for free sand towels
Narrow beach but very nice, not windy. Many restaurants just behind.
It s a rocky beach and not much room for free towels. The water is clean, but it s little rocks almost everywhere.
Park where you can, but once you get to the beach, hook a left and walk up the rocky trail to the cliff for amazing views and a tranquil environment.

Great beach, choice of restaurants to eat from. Good walking areas. Public washroom potty, and changing room available. Only draw back is steep drive down to beach, with sharp turns where you are blind to on coming cars. Drive carefully.
Beautiful beach with a mix of locals and tourists. Not too busy, but gets bussier at the end of the day. Great restaurant choices to choose from and the water is absolutely stunning. Take a look on the cliff on the left side and get a great view of the bay. The right side has a smaller cliff on the end which is absolutely recommended to take a dive or look and see how clear and blue the water gets here.
Great beach! Got there around 2 pm, nobody charged me for the sunbed. A bit slippery when you go in, but it's truly a small beautiful oasis. Would return
Small beach with umbrellas. 2 sunbeds and umbrella 7€. Entrance to the sea: rock, pebbles and a little sand. Restaurants near. In the beach only one small supermarket.
Wonderful beach was enough umbrellas and variety of beds ranging from two to €10 for rent. Which is wider and not a shallow as in Aglia Pelagia. Wonderful snorkeling, opportunities to see small and large fish sitting on the seaweed. One of the best restaurants we’ve seen so far in Greece-Taberna Sirocco.
Nothing special. Small urban beach. 7eur sunbed set. Slippery rocks in the water
Decent price for umbrellas,cafes and taverns in nearby. Pebby sea, not crowded. Well recommended!
Place is good but I gave a star less cause in comparison to the other beach (Agia Pelagia) we found this place a little limited in terms of choice of Resturants and accessibility + parking … otherwise the place looks very scenic and has ample amount of beds to sit and enjoy the sea

Beautiful little beach. Calm waters. Rocky floor. Beach shoes are a good idea. Sun loungers £10 for the day. Worth every penny in my opinion when you can get bar service to your place on the beach. A few shops, couple of bars and restaurants, all great. I'm returning next year, and can't wait.
Beautiful little beach perfect for swimming and snorkelling. It does get busy, sunbeds all but gone by 10am. Sunbeds €10 for two, really good value. Great taverna and supermarket for food and snacks during the day.
A peaceful, clean beach with well-priced and comfortable sunbeds. (€10) There are a quite a few bars, stores and souvenir shops conveniently close by - so you can spend a whole day here. Beach shoes highly recommended since there are very slippery rocks in the water.
Gorgeous little beach in a charming bay. Filled with locals and tourists. Come before 10 AM to snag a pair of sun loungers, will set you back €10. You can pay with card or cash.
Absolutely love this beach, it’s small and not so many sunbeds but when you get one they are comfortable and reasonably cheap we paid €10 for two beds and an umbrella. The beach it’s narrow enough and once in the water the floor of the sea is solid rock which can be a little slippery, but once you know that and act accordingly it’s a joy.. once by the rock bed the floor falls away and you enter deep water, deep beautifully clear and super buoyant water.. it’s such a great place to enjoy a swim, especially very early in the morning. I swam here two ironing just after sunrise and it was one of the great highlights of my stay in Crete. Exceptional place..
An absolutely outstanding beach. Water is crystal clear. Went snorkeling and haven't seen anything like it so close in. Most areas you can stand up but you wouldn't believe your eyes once you break through the waters surface. Wasn't overly busy and plenty of amenities available.
Little beach with a clean water and a nice taverna! Try to come early as the sun beds and even the area to put your towel is limited and you can easily spend whole day here!
Sea was warm and quite clear, did some snorkeling, some little fish swimming around ,scorching hot day lovely cool breeze, be careful, remember put your sun screen on, 😀

Very beautiful beach which during low season (end of October) wasn’t too crowded (high season is most likely very different). The water is so clear and it was a snorkeling paradise for us and the kids!
The beach itself was lovely—clean water, a great spot for a morning swim, and ideal for snorkeling. We only visited in the morning to enjoy a swim and a coffee. However, the atmosphere at the bar was a bit off. The staff, particularly the guy at the bar and his girlfriend, seemed somewhat annoyed and not very welcoming—perhaps because it was still early, around 9 a.m. It created a slightly uncomfortable vibe. We’d definitely return to the beach for the water and the setting, but probably skip the bar next time.
The food was not very special. Loved the sunbeds at this beach. They were so soft and comfortable. The staff was very friendly. I would definitely visit the beach again.
The water here is amazing I really enjoyed to swim there. For two people we paid 25 Eur and got the sunbed from the second row. After second row, sunbeds for two are 20 Eur but they are not clean as like the first two rows. The main problem here is wc. They have only plastic cabins. Also to eat they sell only sandwiches.
The beach is somewhat small and the water level is immediately high. It is not easily accessible to everyone and this makes it ideal to stay all day in a very beautiful stall protected from the wind by the mountains and with spectacular views of the coast. There is a bar where you can buy some drinks and ice cream. Prices are ok
Such a nice beach, definitely recommended! You need to come early to get an umbrella (up to 10:30). The beach itself is small and feels private, there is a beach bar with drinks and snacks served by very friendly bartender. Watersports also available, small boat, jet ski, kayaks, paddle boarding and katamarans. The only downside is the rocky entrance into the water however it makes the water extremely transparent. Overall a must visit place.
Psaromoura Beach is a little hidden, which makes it the perfect place for a quiet morning or afternoon. There’s lot’s of beds to rent, but the prices were very high (€15,- for two) compared to other beaches. But also some room to sit in the sand.

Tres bien! Top! Empfehlenswert! Great diving center, well organised, French led but also English speaking guides, quality loan material, very friendly and super fair prices! Booked another 6 dives after good experience last year - great combination with Seaside Resort ***** fantastic bay and holiday - thank you Antonis & Team ;-)
Absolutely recommended! Very professional, the team is welcoming, the diving base is well equipped. Everything you need to have a safe and enjoyable diving experience. The dive sites offer a lot to see. Really deserves the five stars!
Simply put: YMTI - You Must Try It. I went for the Open Water Diver Course and it was even better than I'd expected. The total price is 550 Euro - 190 for PADI registration and 360 for 9 total dives, including all the equipment. Joan was an amazing instructor, along with the rest of the team. They focused on teaching rather than simply checking boxes, which added to the overall enjoyment because I felt safe learning with them, even at 18m under water. The communcation over email was great, the scheduling was on point and it made me wanna try the advance course next year. I hope to come again and dive with them. All the best and StayWet!!
We would like to thank the dive center and our guide Oliver for the great and friendly experience. We had two dives on SA, October 18, 2025. The reception, preparation, briefing and dive were very relaxed compared to other dive centers with a very hectic schedule. During the dive we were able to see great rock formations, baracudas, octopus, lionfish and various other things. All in all, highly recommended.
Very profesional team. The highest quality service. Every beginner gets individual instructor for all diving session (special thanks to Kevin😁). Good price and quality ratio.
Me & my son did an introductory dive and couldn’t have been happier. Super friendly & helpful team. Turns out I’m a nervous diver, but Kevin was brilliant and helped calm me down so after a couple of false starts I completed the whole dive. If you’ve ever considered trying scuba diving, do it! It’s an amazing experience and the folks at Stay Wet are brilliant - they explain everything really clearly, walk you through the process & equipment and you’re never alone in the water throughout the dive. Just remember to take crocs for the walk across the pebbly beach to get into the sea!
Amazing diving experience, led by a fantastic team! Would recommend to anyone interested in diving. Knowledgeable and friendly team, who speak really good English. The two dives I did as part of the Discover Scuba Diving course were brilliant - reasonably priced, good equipment, clear instructions, super clear waters and lots of sea life to take in. So peaceful under the water, definitely an experience everyone should try! Only feedback I would have is the website could do with some improvement - more and clearer information on the dives and a better online booking system as the website was showing no availability but when I checked in person, I was able to book on. It is also a shame there isn’t more marketing/advertising for the centre - there must be a lot of really good content that can be shown off on instagram/tiktok.
A great experience to have at least once in a lifetime. The crew was great, helpful and with a good vibe. The price is 150€ for 2, without transport and photos, we had pick up and drop off from the hotel for 10 euro extra per person. Anyway, we had a great experience in the company of a great crew, and even if I would have loved to get some more pictures, I strongly recommend.

Awesome experience! Rented a jet-ski for 20min, so much fun and adrenaline, they have really nice machines! Staff is super friendly, absolutely worth it. Thank you George and all the crew for the great service 🤙🏽
Very kind and honest staff, extremely helpful and professional. They don’t try to scam or overcharge you, which is really appreciated. We had a great experience, especially with the Crazy Sofa — so much fun! Highly recommended, would definitely rent again.
Best experience we have had in Crete! We got 3 hours, and the 490cc Olympic boat. Perfect for 2 people. Plenty fast and the staff explained everything very clearly. Where to go, what to do etc. Amazing experience!
Excellent staff and extremely friendly service. Instructions very simple and easy to understand as they explain everything to you very well making you feel safe on your trips. Ouss and Sofia stood out with exceptional customer service. Thank you so much for 2 amazing experiences and we strongly recommend this company for you excursions/ experiences for the future. We will definitely be back!
I really liked the jet ski rental! .Everything went at a high level: the equipment was in excellent condition, the instructor explained the safety rules in detail and helped me get used to it quickly. Riding brought a lot of emotions and adrenaline, but at the same time I felt completely safe. The prices are adequate, the staff is friendly and attentive. I will definitely come again and recommend it to everyone who wants vivid impressions!
Very friendly and good looking lady 😉 gave us very good recommendations and advice. Boot was nice and we had a great day. Just rent the boot for an entire day and go relaxed from one point to another. Don’t rush it. And point 11 is amazing even more when you see it from the little beach. If you didn’t know you could evenly be in the Bahamas.
We rented a boat for a whole day, but after returning the boat we had to pay extra for fuel, but nobody told us about it before the rental. There is no information about it in the rental contract, they tried to justify it with some document called a voucher where +GAS 😄 is written in pen.And the fact that we were allowed to haggle about the price we have to pay means that the price of the extra payment is not documented anywhere, and after the rental you can charge the client any price you want.Use the services of a lawyer who will write it in the contract that you give to the client to sign, because your method of work is questionable at the moment.And the transport for the rental is in good order 👍🏻.
Rented a Jet Ski for a total of 1 hour with a friend, fantastic experience and great help from John who was very welcoming and friendly. Would recommend!

4 years we have been coming back to Agia Pelagia and (most importantly) Nefeli Bar! We have the most magical memories of this place! The cocktails were always created with so much love and care, and the hosts were extremely kind and welcoming! We are sad to see Nefeli closed, but we wanted to leave this review to thank the hosts and wish them all the best for their future! We will always treasure Nefeli in our hearts :) <3
Great drinks with fantastic presentation. Super friendly staff. Prices are fair at 8 - 10€ per cocktail. Said presentation comes with a bit of a wait until your order gets to the table, but the wait is well worth it!
We've been here twice during our stay in Agia Pelagia and this is hands down the place to visit for cocktails! We got snacks with every delicious cocktail we ordered and received a shot of raki or limoncello when paying the bill. Very friendly and generous service. Anyone not rating this 5 stars is out of their mind.
Pleasant, more high-end, bar with great service and great music. Some seats have spectacular views over Agia Pelagia. Clean restrooms. Highly recommended.
Amazing drinks and service. A must visit on a way to/from the beach. Great music :)
Just amazing cocktails, sweet and nice music, a really nice place to be with your love, your family, your friends !! I will be back (I hope so !)
Amazing cocktails, great atmosphere, very sweet owners! A must stop in Agia Pelagia.

Super friendly and competent dive school. From great organization to fun and helpful instructors, you’ll find everything here. Highly recommended for all types and levels of divers.
I had 2 amazing dives with these guys. I can strongly recommend them. Everyone was very kind, friendly. Booking was easy, the price was very good. Dimitris, our guide was a great guy, friendly, but professional, had a great insight for divers' skills, level and capability. Safety is their priority, we had 2 guides for 8 divers and 3 guides for 10, all of them excellent.
The best diving centre we have ever experienced. It's just 10 steps from the centre to the sea. We came for the AOWD course and stayed for other speciality courses and fun dives. Whether in the bay or by boat, the underwater diversity on site has a lot to offer. The team is very competent, friendly and relaxed. From the owner to the 5 cats, we got to know everyone and took them to our hearts. During the training dives, our dive guide was always keen to show us the beauty of the sea. As soon as the opportunity arises, we will come back for more specialities.
Great place, wonderful people! I'd like to thank You - the whole Diver's Club Crete team - for our holiday adventure. You are really the best! Also worth noticing that your care for diving kids is remarkable!
Had great experiences here, profession and safely run shop. Good diving spots in windy conditions close to the shop (10 to 15 minute boat ride)
Today we have visited the dive centre .they have picked us up from the hotel. The equipment was great the people even better we hope to come back to get our licence thank you guys you have been great
I had an amazing experience diving with Divers Club Crete! 🌊 They explained everything very clearly beforehand and even practiced in the pool to make sure we understood everything. I can’t swim, but they still let me join the dive and took such loving care of me the whole time. A staff member stayed by my side, helped me with everything, and was never annoyed even though I needed a bit of “extra” attention. They even took my camera to capture photos of me underwater, which was such a thoughtful gesture. The team checked several times if I was okay. When my ears hurt from the pressure, the instructor calmly took me to the surface and cared for me with so much patience and kindness. Such friendly staff and their clear structure made me feel completely safe and comfortable. I can only recommend this experience to everyone it was wonderful!
We were in Crete in the summer of 2025 and as a family (with two children aged 12 and 16) we gained our open water diver certification. I cannot speak highly enough of the team - they were so warm and welcoming and made us feel completely at home right from the moment we walked through the door to make an enquiry. Our instructor Johannes was fab - always patient and good humoured - and guided us through everything so we quickly gained confidence. When one of our group had a wobble, they put a plan in place to reassure and help overcome fear - they really went above and beyond and I cannot recommend them highly enough. We’re now totally hooked on diving and can’t wait to get back in the warm water soon!!

Handmade jewelry in a very wide variety, for all tastes, fantastic prices. Unique pieces that can satisfy even the most demanding... The owner of the goldsmith is very knowledgeable and very helpful, knows the item very well... They made the ring I described to them from scratch exactly the way I wanted it. Having bought from both the physical and the online store, I strongly recommend it.

You can rent boats everywhere but at this place you really feel safe and lucky. Very good instructions and clear safety rules. Also no hidden costs and very reasonable prices. Booking in the office or as we did by whatsapp. Really nice guys! Boat was a nice one with a powerfull engine and easy to steer. Love to be a captain at this beautiful place ❤️
friendly and professional people, the boat was in good shape, and the water amazing....prices reasonable.....what else you can ask for
We rented a boat for 4 hours and spent a wonderful afternoon at sea. The staff are super friendly and give perfect instructions. We were our own captains and had a lot of fun. We can highly recommend Seahorse.👍
Great couple of hours out on the water. Showed us how to work the boat well and we called in when we had a question. Great value for 8 of us too. Thank you
We rented a boat here for 3 Hours. It was just awesome. The whole Team were so nice and the Captain showed us everything so we could enjoy our trip!
Fantastic experience. Captain Andres is a Really cool guy and he gave us the perfect information where to go considering the weather.
No complaints. This was a relatively painless experience. They provided goggles and snorkels for us, a phone for emergency use, and the boat was comfortable. Staff were great to deal with, and I think the prices were fair. My only nitpick is I felt my particular boat was a bit underpowered. We had some moderate wave action on our return trip, and the boat seemed to really struggle. Perhaps this is normal? Either way, we got back to port with no issues.
Friendly Personal and good Prices. Good Insructions on renting a Boat.

What an amazing store. The collection was so trendy and divers and the owners were very very friendly, helpful and respectful! The handmade leather sandals, made by the husband of the owner are perfect. If you have the chance, you should come by! Ps: clothes in the picture are from the store.
I had a wonderful experience at this lovely tourist shop, which offers a beautiful selection of Greek clothing and accessories. The staff was incredibly kind and supportive, helping me find the perfect items. I was especially impressed by the handmade sandals crafted by Alexis—each pair is a work of art, showcasing true Greek craftsmanship. The shop also has a fantastic range of accessories that perfectly complement the clothing. Their genuine care and expert advice made my shopping experience truly special. If you're in the area, this shop is a must-visit for authentic Greek fashion and unique, handmade items.
Unfortunately, we had a very bad experience in this store. The owner was talking bad about us behind our backs and was very rude. I have never experienced this. I told her that I didn’t appreciate her attitude and she didn’t even apologise. I recommend to spend your money elsewhere. Somewhere you are appreciated as a customer where you are treated with respect.
Great shop!! Especially to my friend Minos what a great guy he and his mom run this shop with passion really worth going to... it's his first season working there and I recommend all the men to ask his advice he knows what he is talking about 💯👌🏽 wish you all the best and thank you for get to know such nice people like you!! Bye bye greetings from Drago (srbija) and good luck with your shoulder don't forget to swim my brother and your mom will give you 1 day extra free for that hahahah caooooo😜😂👌🏽♥️🙏
During our holiday in Agia Pelagia we found this lovely shop, the staff are so welcoming and friendly. You can browse freely and if you find something you like, the owner and her staff will be on hand to help with size or alternatives. The clothing is formal or informal for men, women and children, and the shop also has beautiful jewellery, hats, bags and handmade/measured sandals of your own design The changing rooms are clean, and the staff will bring alternatives in style or colour for you to try on, never felt pressured to purchase, as they only want to help and if you decide you do not want to buy, the experience is still positive one. We all felt it was like having a personal shopper, it was fun and a great experience and the linen is amazing to help to deal with the heat. Highly recommend a visit, and you can purchase online 🥰
Bought some very nice flip flops for my wife, hand made by the owner of the shop. Very happy with the result. Will come back next year 🤩
Stunning shop and beautiful clothes, all locally made or from Greece. The sandals are beautiful and so comfy, my mum bought some and loves them. They are made in Agia Pelagia, so very sustainable. I bought this gorgeous pink top I'll wear all summer, my sister a t shirt and my mum bought a stunning dress too. A fantastic shop to visit whilst staying in Agia Pelagia! We will be back or buying online. Great customer service too! 😊😊🌸
I bought for myself and my boyfriend some beautiful high quality linen clothing. There are many options and the owner and her staff are so sweet and helpful. I needed an alteration for a shirt that I bought and it was done perfectly and ready the next day!

AMAZING!!! We come to Crete many times and only recommend Aqua Star!!! Staff are so much fun and high quality equipment! Efxaristo Michalis, Stelios, Andreas, Kostos, Manolis and Yannis 🫶🏼
An excellent experience with water sports! We tried both jet skiing and water skiing — the equipment was in perfect condition, and the instructors were very friendly and professional. Everything was well organized, and I felt safe throughout. A perfect activity for anyone looking to add some excitement to their vacation. I’d definitely do it again!
Today we rented a jet ski for 20 minutes, that was all okay except for one time where we ended up too close to the coast due to big waves and wind, and the jet ski was stopped as was explained at the start. This all seemed to be no problem and we drove back into the area after and then back to the beach as our time was up. Upon arrival a ‘coast police’ was waiting for us and without any explanation our passports, hotel information and phone number were asked. When we asked why this was necessary and if we did something wrong the answer was; no no it’s just a check and you have to give your information otherwise you’ll go to the police station. We said we wanted to know why and didn’t just want to give our information like that and the coast police got pretty mad at us in Greek and people were yelling at each other. In the end one of the guys from the rental explained to us that you need a permit to drive the jet ski, which no one had told us and we were not aware of. After half an hour of arguing with the Greek coast guard and the rental staff we were finally allowed to go. Let’s hope nothing else follows from this as this experience was already bad enough. Don’t rent a jet ski if you don’t have a licence!!! 👎👎👎👎🦆🦆🦆
Must do!! The owner and his crew are amazing friendly fun people!! In such a touristic island is not so easy to find spots that they really want you to have fun, instead of just your money. Well, that was a great spot with good Vibes!! We enjoyed a great experience ** absolutely recommend it 👍
Overall it was a very nice experience. We wanted to rent a boat and they said to us: You won't have fun because it's too windy. In my opinion it wasn't that windy, but they wanted us to enjoy the boat trip. That's a great service. Price for 3 hours with fuel included is perfect. Thank you and hope to see you soon.
Very correct service and fair prices! Thanks for the fun afternoon.
Quick service, no hidden charges. Rented the boat without skipper. Restriction not to come closer 200 m to beaches/rocks - claims boat tracked by GPS tracker . Which I doubt, but prudence needs to be exercised.
The best water sports, personal very friendly, perfect prices. I've rent a boat, it was very nice. The area is amazing, very nice beaches that you can visit with their boat. I will visit them next year also.

(Translated by Google) Young team, Prices okay The captain who gave us the boat was very professional and nice! (Original) Junges Team, Preise okay Der Captain der uns das Boat verliehen hat sehr professionell und nett !
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Had a confirmed booking and then went silent, did not respond to messages or calls. Only after we should have been picked up did they finally respond to say conditions weren’t right and we couldn’t go out even though another company said it was fine, Terrible service and no apology either.
(Translated by Google) We waited an hour there for nothing even though the manager told us in thirty minutes you will have a boat. Total radio silence afterwards he doesn't even look at us anymore. No clue about the wait afterwards. They are not traders at all. Lots of competition on the island, you will have better luck elsewhere. (Original) Nous avons attendu une heure sur place pour rien alors que le responsable nous avez dis dans trente minutes vous aurez un bateau. Silence radio total après il ne nous regardez même plus. Pas un indice sur l’attente par la suite. Ils ne sont pas commerçants du tout. Beaucoup de concurrence sur l’ile, vous aurez plus de chance ailleurs.
(Translated by Google) Boat rental: On-site, you'll need to fill out a rental form with all the necessary information. Among other things, you'll need to enter your credit card number with a CRV! CAUTION! Data protection? Very pleasant until payment, after which it's just a matter of checking in. The briefing was very brief. Two seat cushions were loose in the boat (and could fly off), and a roof mount was completely torn off. Apparently, they're not interested in boat maintenance! €180 for two hours is way too expensive! (Original) Bootsmiete : Vor Ort ist ein Miet-Formular mit allen möglichen Angaben auszufüllen. U.a. soll dort die Kreditkartennummer mit CRV eingetragen werden ! VORSICHT ! Datenschutz ??? Bis zur Bezahlung recht nett, danach nur noch Abfertigung. Einweisung sehr kurz. Im Boot waren zwei Sitzkissen lose (können somit wegfliegen) und eine Halterung für das Dach war komplett abgerissen. An der Wartung der Boote gibt es wohl kein Interesse !? 180 € für zwei Stunden viel zu teuer !

Aliki was a clever teacher, patient, competent and always full of energy and good mood. I got my licence and now I enjoy the sailing experience in Crete. Highly professional school indeed.
Aliki is a great teacher, she was very helpful from start to finish, I enjoyed doing my school with her. Highly recommend !
CYA has turned the challenge of powerboat learning to a pleasant experience to hold on to. It's easy for Aliki because she is the best instructor that prospective skippers may wish for. Thank you, CYA
I’m from the USA and Aliki and the Academy were so gracious and helpful. Aliki speaks great English and is very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend if wanting or needing a Captains license to sign up today! Thanks again Aliki !!!👍🏼
If you’re looking for a boat driving license teacher, I had an amazing experience with Aliki. They were patient, knowledgeable, and made learning the ropes of boating enjoyable and informative. Their expertise and guidance were invaluable in helping me gain the skills and confidence needed to pass the exam.
Excellent professional, with in depth knowledge of both practical and theoretical requirements. Super friendly, eager to assist and get you through the process successfully.
From the moment I started my lessons at this school, I knew I was in good hands. The practical sessions were comprehensive and very enjoyable ensuring I felt confident. I highly recommend it to anyone with a desire to learn from the best
I had the pleasure of being trained by Aliki for my speed boat license, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. Aliki's expertise, patience, and clear instructions made the learning process enjoyable and effective. I felt confident and well-prepared thanks to her guidance. Aliki's passion for teaching and her friendly approach created a comfortable and encouraging environment. She even went above and beyond by inviting my wife and children in one of the sessions to get a basic training, ensuring that we all had an engaging and comprehensive experience when traveling with the boat. I highly recommend Aliki to anyone seeking a top-notch instructor for obtaining their speed boat license. Thank you, Aliki, for your exceptional training and support!
