What To Expect
Antiparos
Our 30-minute stop at the Mastichari Sea Caves, on the southern coast of Antiparos, is a highlight for those craving both beauty and adventure. For the more daring guests, this is the perfect chance to try cliff jumping into the deep, crystal-clear Aegean—an unforgettable adrenaline rush against a dramatic backdrop. These striking sea caves, naturally carved into the rocky coastline, also offer peaceful spots to swim, explore hidden inlets, or simply float beneath towering cliffs. Whether you're chasing thrills or just soaking in the scenery, this stop delivers an epic taste of Antiparos’ untamed side.
At Epitafios Beach in Antiparos, our 30-minute stop invites you to explore one of the island’s most peaceful and untouched coastal spots. Surrounded by dramatic rock formations and deep blue waters, Epitafios is known for its natural caves and striking geological beauty. Guests can swim through the crystal-clear sea, glide into small caves, or simply float and take in the raw, rugged charm of the landscape. It's a serene and scenic escape—ideal for a refreshing dip, unique photos, and a taste of Antiparos’ wild side before we continue our journey.

5.00This cruise was wonderful! The entire staff was super friendly and happy to serve! They provided sufficient information for both enjoyment and safety. The food was delicious and a perfect, light meal for all the swimming stops you take! The locations are all beautiful, with various exciting things at each one – cliff jumping, swimming under a cave, swimming in the blue lagoon, or checking out the ruins of a temple on a small island! The cruise is very slow and leisurely, allowing you to enjoy the day at sea without any splashing or unwanted excitement. The refreshments are served the entire time as you please. We felt that for the price, this was an excellent cruise run by amazing people!
delightful day on and in the water

5.00My sister and I had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend it to anyone interested! The number of destinations, the lunch, free drinks, and friendliness of the family that leads the trip were all excellent, especially for the price. A few other people we got to know on the boat remarked what a great deal it was too! I was very excited to go cliff jumping and swim into caves, which I got to do at the first stop. You get a good mix of destinations, also including ancient ruins and the blue lagoon. Everything was beautiful!

5.00This 1/2 day tour was fabulous. The places we went to were lovely and the food that was prepared was delicious! There are ample beverages to choose from at the bar, including beer, wine, soft drinks , and water—all included in the cost of the ticket. The owners/operators are great tour guides! they put safety first and check the weather on an ongoing basis so you get an optimal experience! Every member of the crew provide valuable information about the locations and history. They also were attentive to everyone’s needs. I would say this crew is the perfect host! The tour is a wonderful bargain and I highly recommend it.

5.00This trip is not one that anyone should miss. Plenty of stops at beautiful areas of the ocean here in Greece. You would think 30-45 minutes at each locations isn’t enough but it’s more than enough time to enjoy the water and take some cool pictures at each location. Let me add that the entire staff is amazing from taking the small time to talk to each one of the groups regarding the history of the next stop to answering any questions. Then throw in what they call a “snack” is a full meal along with a fruit meal after the last stop. Ohhhhh yeah you like to boooze they got that for you from wine to beer soft drinks and water. All this is included by the way unlimited well all the beverages whether alcohol or soft drinks.
Perfect half day trip and...

5.00This is a family-run operation, and it shows. The owner and family members greet you upon arrival on boat, walk around and ask if you're enjoying yourself, they prepare the lunch, etc. You can feel the difference in the energy vs. a corporate owned boat. Regarding actual boat trip, it was a fun trip. Each swimming spot had 30 minutes in the water. We got to experience all the major spots in an organized manner. The only downside is if you want more than 30 minutes per spot, then you might want to take a longer trip. But this was enough for us.
Amazing!
