Spend about five hours fishing off Rhodes with Angelo, Vasili, and the captain, then swim and snorkel near Kallithea Springs. The small group, fresh grilled lunch, free drinks, and friendly crew make this a sociable sea outing, though fishing results and boat comfort can vary.

“Fun couple of hours day at sea fishing followed by swimming/snorkelling at a cove/caves. I personally didn’t catch anything but it didn’t spoil it. We might only have been on a small boat but people on nearby bigger boats were envious of our lunch which was beautiful! I had the grilled fish & gluten free bread with side salad and fresh fruit. Angelo was great fun with an infectious laugh and was very helpful. Well worth the money. Highly recommend this trip. Free soft drinks and beer/wine available on board. The meeting place is on the water front, not where Google maps leads you. (Heads up there is a toilet…”
