AMAZING!! AMAZING!!! Such an amazing experience!! Me and my boyfriend went in March, 2023 which is technically off-season. Although fishing is a gamble we were lucky enough to catch a barracuda. We have done multiple deep-sea fishing tours before but this one tops all of them. Not only were the views absolutely spectacular, while we were cruising around the tour guide told us all the history about the islands. There was never a moment that the captain and his partner were not keeping us company. On top of everything the captain and his wife made us a greek homemade meal for us to enjoy on the cruise back to the port. I couldn’t recommend this enough!! Don’t hesitate, book with captain Makis!!

My son and I took a 5 hour fishing trip with Captain Makis. The boat was clean and adequate for a small party of up to 4-5 people or so. The fishing gear was traditional spinning reels with trolling rods. We trolled for about 3-4 hours. Unfortunately we only caught one small barracuda but we were told upfront that August is the worst time for fishing in Santorini. Best times are usually March-April and later in the fall. Either way we still had a good time. The captain and first mate provided great local knowledge and we explored the region including the volcanoes, rock formations, etc. You can do what you want including swimming in secluded lagoons, etc. They provided a fresh lunch and even cooked our fresh catch of barracuda. They provided a fun and comfortable environment. The only thing that could have made it better was catching more fish. I can’t really blame them for that.

Of note, Captain Makis was excellent with communication prior to the trip and we met him immediately after getting off our cruise ship. It made the experience very easy. Paid for everything by credit card which also made it simple. The crystal clear blue water and views are incredible.

I would certainly recommend them based on our experience.

My 16 year old son and I had an excellent time with Captain Makis and first mate Ilias.  The entire experience was exceptional.  We trolled around the volcanoes and islands of Santorini.  We caught barracuda, bonito and a small grouper.

They offered an opportunity to swim and explore the beach while they cleaned the fish from the morning.  We then went to a cove for lunch.  We had fresh caught grilled barracuda, bonito ceviche and Makis’ family recipes for Greek salad, tomato fritters, meat balls and tatzhiki.  We then fished some more.

The meal and the trip were both excellent.  Makis is a true fisherman and Ilias has a ton of knowledge about the history of the island.  I would definitely recommend this trip.

My wife and I have done over 25 fishing charters around the world, and Captain Makis’ tour was world class! We started our 5-hour tour in Amoudi Bay and toured the neighboring island of Thirasia, a fishing village where Capt Makis was raised by a long family of fishermen. His highly knowledgeable first mate, Elias, told us much about the rock formations and fascinating history of volcanic eruptions. We then trolled for grouper around Thirasia until we caught two barracuda. We then trolled between the two smaller volcanic islands in the center of the caldera, Palaia Kammeni and Nea Kamenni, then wandered into a small hidden cove on Nea Kamenni with crystal clear waters where we tied up and snorkeled while Capt. Makis and Elias grilled our catch and served us a delicious lunch with home made salad from Capt. Makis’ personal garden, meatballs, tzatziki and AMAZING tomato fritters made by Capt. Makis’ wife, and toast and wine. They waited on us hand and foot and constantly checked to make sure we were thoroughly enjoying ourselves. We finished with a short tour of St. Nicolas island on our way back to Oia. Such a wonderful trip!
