Great day out in Souda bay. The area was amazing, we couldn’t explore the eastern side of Akrotiri due to strong winds, but the bay was nice and sheltered and fairly calm. The nautical chart provided by the team helped us visit some other stunning parts of the bay! It was also very interesting to see some of the navy ships coming in and out of the military base nearby! Athina and the team were extremely friendly, helpful and on hand for anything you need. They also paid a couple of visits on the jet ski to make sure everything was going smoothly. Parking nearby was easy and cheap, and the Marathi area was a great place to stop for a rest and a drink after a long day of swimming, sunbathing and boating around. 100% recommend!

My partner and I rented the boat for the afternoon, we had a great time. Everything was in superb condition, the staff were really friendly and instructions were very clear. We found anchoring a little difficult (due to our inexperience) but after a few tries we got the hang of it. We stopped by the nearby islands recommended by the instructor which was amazing! The cost was fair for the rental and the fuel. We're always wary of any vehicle rental when on holiday or in a touristy area, but our experience with Sea Adventure was excellent. I would definitely recommend them and the experience was so worthwhile I would 100% do it again if I came back to Chania!
