I was raised fishing off the coast of Massachusett, and charter fishing has been a staple of just about every memorable family vacation I’ve ever been on.
Santorini is dope if you like the outdoors (hiking, beaching, etc.), but after three full days, you’ve probably seen most of the island, and if youre looking for something memorable, and low-impact, book this trip with this boat.
Capt. Makis (a fourth generation fisherman of these waters) and 1st Mate llias are top notch fishermen, and make for brilliant company.
The craft is clean, safe, and seaworthy.
This is an ideal trip to take with an older parent, or adolescent (though book a transfer/driver to/from the harbor because the walk is straight up strenuous.
We were lucky enough to catch a beautiful grouper which was later prepared for us on the deck of the boat and served to us for lunch. I was absolutely lovely.

BOOK THE TRIP!

Got a couple fish but this was more history and sunset cruise then fishing. it was absolutely amazing!!!  It was just me and my husband and we LOVE to fish but were not disappointed. Beautiful weather in May and topography!!  Captain stole the show!  He is a delight. His Boat “B” haha was very entertaining.

For the perfect family trip while on vacation in Santorini, there’s no need to look anywhere else. Captain Makris and Elias gave my family an authentic Greek experience that we will never forget. The boat is immaculate, the scenery is incredible, and we ate our catch less than an hour after it was captured. These gentlemen are kind, courteous, and professional. I hope that I am blessed enough to fish with them again someday in the future.

We had an incredible experience with Pirate Fishing Tours in Santorini! Even though the fish weren’t biting much that day, it was more than enough for a delicious BBQ that the crew cooked for us right on board—fresh, flavorful, and unforgettable.

Captain Makis, with over 30 years of fishing experience around Santorini, made the trip even more special by sharing stories from his life as a fisherman. His passion for the sea really shines through. The boat itself was custom-built, very comfortable, and perfectly suited for a relaxing day on the water.

The crew, Maria and Elias, were simply outstanding—funny, kind, knowledgeable about the island, and always making sure we had drinks in hand. They kept the mood light, the laughs going, and created such a welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home.

This was far more than just a fishing trip—it was a genuine Santorini experience. Highly recommend Pirate Fishing Tours to anyone looking for a memorable adventure on the water!
