Greece · SNORKELING
The good snorkelling trips go weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: 15 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Ride a jet boat from Hersonissos to Saint George’s Bay for fast turns, snorkeling, swimming, and Crete’s clear coastal waters.
“brilliant experience, snorkeling equipment provided and lots of fish to see!”
Cruise Milos for eight hours with cave visits, four swim stops, Greek food, drinks, snorkeling gear, and a small group of 12.
“Booked this day trip with my partner where there was a small group of 10 people. We were greeted by Flora and George (sorry if I have misspelled). They were fantastic and went above and beyond for everybody. We stopped at all the famous places but got taken into the caves on the rib and also did some cliff jumping (safely) and swimming in multiple spots. The food was lovely and it was a highlight of our holiday!”
Review of the Heraklion to Dia Island sailing cruise, with snorkeling, paddleboarding, meals, drinks, crew details, costs, and practical tips.
“The crew was super friendly. Even the weather condition was not the best, the travel went quite smooth. The bays are there just amazing. Only dis thing was, I was expecting to swim in more spots (we did 2), but the places we swam was fantastic 🥰 The food was not great but it tastes good since you became super hungry 😁”
Review of Milos and Poliegos catamaran cruise with Kleftiko, snorkeling, BBQ, Greek tapas, drinks, photos, and practical booking tips.
“This was one of the most amazing tours I’ve ever been on! The crew lead by captain George and Andreas were exceptional. The water was crystal clear and so blue and they made amazing dishes for us after each stop. 10/10 tour and would highly recommend”
Cruise from Kolymbari to Menies Beach and Chironisia Bay for snorkeling, swimming, WWII relics, and secluded Cretan coves for $47.
“This was a very nice excursion. Certainly not the most gorgeous beach in Crete, but it was still very nice. Very nice low key excursion. Online description accurate. Exactly what I signed up for. HIGHLY suggest to bring water shoes.”
Review of Chania’s 3-hour snorkeling and SUP boat trip, with clear Crete waters, small groups, guides, photos, and practical booking tips.
“Three nice sites for snorkeling. Though the bio environment is the same, not too much diversity of species in the field, but still very happy for a new player of snorkeling. And the guide is a marine biologist, with quick Q and As.”
Review of Santorini’s private fishing cruise with Captain Makis: fish, snorkel, swim, enjoy a fresh BBQ, and see the caldera from the sea.
“An amazing day on the sea with incredible hosts. We felt like we made new friends when we left!! Do it!”
Review of Crete’s Malia snorkeling cruise with hotel transfers, swim stops, lunch, drinks, and clear sea views for $81.
“Pick up right on time, friendly crew, trip not too short or too long - we all loved it. Priced just right - value for money.”
Review of Milos and Polyaigos full-day cruise with swimming, snorkeling, meals, Greek villages, Kleftiko, and practical booking tips.
“Highly recommend - especially for couples! Dora and the crew were amazing and so attentive to all of the guests on the boat. It’s a great way to see the island and get access to parts of the island that aren’t accessible by car - like a really cool volcanic formed beach (which was the highlight of the trip for me). Dora also took the time to explain the history of the stops we made on the trip and she managed to remember everyone’s *clap clap*. In summary, would deffo do this trip again if (when!) my bf and I come back to Milos.”
Sail around Milos to Kleftiko, swim, snorkel, explore sea caves, and enjoy Greek food and drinks on this full-day yacht tour.
“This is a difficult review to leave as the overall tour is good in the sense you get to go to areas unreachable by car or foot. The issue is that this trip was not well run and missed even the most basic of needs for any boat trip. We were given a rough idea of where we were going that didn't really align to what it says on here. There was no safety briefing or guidance on what to do, given many of us never went on a yacht like this before. I don't want to fault Christo or Vasili who were great crew members but Juliano was unfortunately…”
Review of Milos and Poliegos sailing cruise, with snorkelling, hidden beaches, lunch, GoPro photos, practical tips, and honest drawbacks.
“The crew were super welcoming, knowledgeable and fun, they made an effort to know everyone on the boat and ensure that we all had a great experience, I'd highly recommend. We went to some beautiful spots and ate delicious food as well as getting the chance to snorkel and I had a wee go on the paddle board”
Cruise Milos by catamaran to Sykia and Kleftiko caves, with swimming, snorkeling, Greek food, drinks, and a small 12-person group.
“Fantastic trip! The captain and assist captain did a wonderful job providing us an excellent experience that was unforgettable. We visited so many places including the famous caves and were on the water from 10:30 to 18:30. If you enjoy boating this is a must do.”
Review of the Heraklion to Dia catamaran cruise with lunch, open bar, snorkeling, SUP, family activities, and practical booking tips.
“Awesome and caring crew! Boat was super clean and enough seats were provided. You could chill on any place on the boat. Crew and captain Joana was superb!”
Review of Milos’ Kleftiko sailing cruise with snorkeling, meals, drinks, caves, swimming, and practical tips on ports, price, and group size.
“The day was pleasant and the crew friendly but we were very numerous in terms of the size of the boat and especially I chose this cruise because it had to be in French and none of the crew spoke French.Auto-translated”
Ride Rhodes by jet boat, snorkel at Kallithea Springs, swim in sea caves, and enjoy drinks, music, and high-speed boat tricks.
“Our Captain was awesome, i want to thank him many many times for our experience, it was amazing. The ride was very fun, good music, nice atmosphere, lots of drinks for everyone (water, beer, soft drinks like cola and soo on), they have equipment for snorkeling, it was a very nice experience. I definitely recommend this trip, you are not going to regret even 2 cents.”
