Let’s Customize your Tour

🏰 A slow sail past the iconic walls of Methoni Fortress, glowing at golden hour 🏝️ A stop at Sapientza Island for a last swim in crystal-clear waters 🐟 Fresh local snacks and drinks on board as the sun touches the horizon ⚓ Anchor in a quiet cove and simply breathe it all in 🌊 Snorkelling, swimming, or just drifting — the choice is yours

What to Bring

We take care of everything on board — but here is what we recommend packing for the most comfortable experience on the water:

👙 Swimming clothes — for a refreshing dip at Sapientza Island or a quiet cove along the way

👔 A light long-sleeve shirt or layer — as the sun sets over the Ionian Sea the breeze picks up, and evenings on the water can feel cooler than expected

👟 Light, flat shoes — comfortable and easy to slip off when stepping on board or going for a swim

🧴 Sunscreen & sunglasses — the Messinian sun reflects strongly off the water, even in the late afternoon

📷 Your camera or phone — because some moments deserve to be remembered
