FAQ
The price of this private fishing charter from Chania starts from 450 euros with an open deck RIB (group of up to 4 persons)*.
*On the boat, more travelers (up to 5-6 persons) are welcome, but they can not all fish simultaneously.
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.
If you want a fun day with your kids, we will fish with baits in shallow water near the coast, targeting smaller fish.
Between January to April and September to December we will first catch squids. 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. If you are a beginner or your small kids want to fish, we will go to shallow water and use bates like shrimps or worms targeting smaller fish.
During Summer, the fish are more suspicious, and fishing is more difficult as we can’t keep the baits alive due to the hot temperatures. Therefore, we recommend combining the tour in the summer season with a fun day out in the water, swimming and relaxing!
We share the fish that we catch. On this half-day trip, you can take up to one fish of 3 kg with you. Then, we can clean it and arrange a nice restaurant for you and your family/company to eat the fish. Catch and release are also allowed.
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.
Don’t forget to bring travel gums if you think you may feel sea sickness. Take the first dose 30 minutes before our fishing charter begins.
