TOUR DESCRIPTION
Antikythera is a small island between Crete and the Peloponnese. It is located 35 miles north of Crete in the Aegean Sea and has a population of less than 50 permanent residents. It is said among the locals that it is the best fishing spot in all of Greece, with a rich underwater ecosystem! At the riffs, the small islets, and the deep rocky seabed, you will find a variety of fish, such as groupers, amberjacks, red snappers, and tunas!
Suppose you are seeking a once-in-a-lifetime experience, fishing in virgin fishing spots with the best local fishermen, to one of the smallest and least populated islands in Greece, still unexplored by tourists. In that case, this is a trip you shouldn’t miss! After fishing, we will stop at Antikythera’s Port to dine at a traditional tavern.
Drinks, snacks, and fishing equipment are included.
Suggested starting time: 7.30 – 8.00 a.m.

FAQ
The price of this private fishing charter from Chania starts from 1500 euros with an open deck RIB for groups of up to 4 persons.
The techniques may vary depending on the season, the fish species, the weather conditions, and the fishing spots. Usually, we do spinning and bottom fishing with silicone lures and jigs or use live bait (small fishes or squids). Our usual targets will be Groupers, Dentex, Amberjacks, Squids, or a variety of smaller fish.
We will first catch squids between January to April and September to December. This will be our main bait for bottom fishing. Squids are the best bait for our waters, especially if it is fresh!
In Summer (May-August), we will primarily fish with silicon lures and jigs at depths between 30-100 meters or bait (shrimps -squids), targeting groupers, snappers, and small tunas.
We share the fish that we catch. On this full-day trip, you can take up to one fish of 5 kg with you. Then, we can clean it and arrange a nice restaurant for you and your family/company to eat the fish, or we can eat it together on Antikythera Island in a local traditional tavern. Catch and release are also allowed.
Yes, you can. However, you can’t fish altogether. Only up to 4 people can fish at the same time. The others can rest on the boat and relax or wait their turn. If everybody wants to fish, we can arrange a second boat for you.
Between June 15 and September 10, bring your Beachwear, Towels, Sunscreen Hat, sunglasses, and a long-sleeved shirt (for sun protection). Remember to bring a wind jacket if you book a trip earlier than June 15. The average (low-high) temperature in the Summer (June -August) in Crete is 20-33 degrees, usually without clouds.
For the months of April, May, June (1st half), September (second half), and October, the average temperature may vary between 18-28 degrees. Bring a long-sleeved shirt or a wind -jacket in case of cloudy weather, rain, or a late return to the Port. Remember to bring travel gums if you think that you may feel sea sickness. Take the first dose 30 minutes before our fishing charter begins.
- In the chance of inconvenient weather conditions, there will be the following options:
- SEAze The Day will postpone the date.
- Change the departure and return point accordingly upon arrangement with the guest.
- If none of the two options above are feasible for the client, SEAze The Day shall refund the deposit amount.
- In the event of cancellation more than 10 days before the date of the boat trip, the guest shall receive the 50% of the deposit.
- In the event of notifying us about the cancellation less than 10 days before the date of the boat trip, SEAze The Day shall keep the entire deposit.
We require a 20% deposit for a booking. The remaining balance is paid upon arrival at the Port before the boat departs.
All our boats have portable fire extinguishers, a first aid kit, flares, a floating anchor, a spare boat engine or two main engines, a depth sounder, and a geodetic tracking system (GPS tracker). Also, our staff is highly trained in emergencies, following a specific safety protocol.
There are no health restrictions, but please notify us if you have children under the age of 4, if you have a pregnant person in your group, if you have any allergies, or if a person with disabilities.
