We had a great trip to Dia Island, the boat was brilliant and the bays we stopped in were beautiful, it was good fun using the paddleboards, snorkeling gear and jumping of the boat deck. Captain George and Nikos were brilliant, they explained everything on board, shared intresting facts as we sailed around and made us up some great lunch. Jason was easy to communicate with when booking. Cheers guys, we had a great experience, 10/10 would recommend
