Great time on the Pirate Fishing & Boat Tour -
Thanks to Mikis and Elias who provided us a wonderful experience on this boat tour. Mikis is a real EXPERT, he has been a fisherman since age 13. Most of his life is spent at the sea. He knows everything about fishing and the boat. We caught a good size grouper, but the fish was hidden behind the rocks deep down. What happened was Mikis wanted to let me experience the fun, so after the fish bit the bait, I did not retrieve the line fast enough and the fish went hiding. Mikis made a deep free dive to get the fish for us so we can have a delicious fresh fish BBQ. The tour also took us around to see the scenic volcanic geology around caldera, with many beautiful views of Santorini, especially Oia. Elias speaks English well and guided us with explanation of the areas during the boat tour. They are a great duo to make our tour more fun. The boat is brand new. We highly recommend this private tour.

Highlight of our trip! - Absolutely loved this trip! The crew was amazing! More than just a fishing trip, we got a history lesson and learned old stories from the locals themselves. Beautiful views and captured the most beautiful pictures. Caught a few fish and even got to cook it right on the boat for lunch. 10/10 would recommend to anyone traveling to Santorini!

A perfect day on the water - Our experience was excellent. Captain Mike and First Mate Elia are consummate hosts. They filled us with knowledge of the history and geology of the Caldera. They put us on fish, from which they prepared a very fine meal. In all, a perfect day on the water.

A “MUST” Experience when in Santorini - If you are looking for an AMAZING EXPERIENCE while in Santorini, sign up for a private boat tour with Captain Makis, an expert sea captain, fisherman, and guide. It will be one of your best adventures and memories. We went fishing; however he takes others on sunset cruises, swimming experiences, tours around the islands, whatever you like, with him as your private captain and guide.
Here are some of our photos - he is an excellent chef as well!
Thank you, Captain Makis and Ilios at Pirate Fishing and Boat tours! 🎣❤️

Once in a lifetime - If you’re traveling to Santorini and don’t go on this tour, you’re definitely missing out. I’m so thankful I found their tour. This was an unreal experience that we'll never forget. I could go on and on about this trip. The Captain Makis and llias were incredibly genuine people that shared so many stories and similarities with us. The captain made homemade dishes for us, grilled the grouper and the mackeral was made into the best ceviche, maybe even the best meal, we've ever had. We're so grateful to have been with them on the boat. It's hard to describe in words just how amazing this was. The boat itself was one-of-a-kind too. I hope to come back again one day and see them again.

Santorini Fishing Tour - The guides were amazing! They made this trip so much more than fishing. We did manage to snag a grouper! It was a bit cold and windy and they made sure we were comfortable the entire time. Lots of great drink and stories about the island. It’s a great mix of fishing and a tour by boat of the island.
The BBQ was perfect, the captain is a hell of a cook and was one of our favorite meals during our stay.
They know how to bring great energy and we were jamming music and having a blast.
We also got to post up at a prime spot to watch the infamous Oia sunset before heading it. I’d absolutely recommend this excursion to anyone!
Great team!

Unforgettable Fishing and Cruising in the Caldera - We stayed on Santorini several days and had a few activities planned. This was definitely a highlight. Our hotel (Anastassis Apartments) actually booked this for us. Mikes and Elias were amazing guides and hosts. They provided transportation to and from our hotel which took the worry away of how to get there, timing and parking. The boat is gorgeous and immaculate. We had so much fun cruising, snorkeling and swimming and I caught a barracuda! They provide everything. They prepared us a fabulous meal doing a Greek barbecue. Then we made our way back to Ammoudi Bay and watched the sunset. I can’t recommend this tour enough.
