We had a fantastic days sailing with Sara, Mario and the adorable Nina. They looked after us very well. Mario was super happy to give us rusty sailors some instruction and we learnt so much practical advice from him. Sara was an impeccable host and kept us very well fed and watered. We had a day beyond our expectations and would not hesitate to recommend. Grazie Mille!

Team very accommodating in case of any issues. Our boat on which electric anchor was not working was replaced after we left marina and wanted to anchor. Team arrived with another boat of the same type and we were allowed to have one more hour of boating. We rented another boat boat next day from them and all was fine. The team cares about clients having an enjoyable time and good company experience. I would recommend a rental from Ionian Boats in Nydri Marina. Hope to come back soon to do more boating around few more islands.,

Redon and his team are amazing. We had Dennis as our captain and he’s been on the island for 25 years and took us to all the perfect spots.

Harris provided a first class service during our charter. He responded to our request very quickly and helped with any issues we had. We would recommend using Harris for chartering in the Athens area.

Extremely friendly skipper who showed us all of the very best spots around the island. We nearly decided to rent the boat without him, but are very glad we did in the end!

Absolutely amazing! We had the best day EVER. We hired the boat from 9:30am to 4:30pm and had a captain for the day. He knew exactly where to take us to swim in the most beautiful spots. I highly recommend!
