A unique and unforgettable experience - Fishing with Yiannis is an absolute must for anyone visiting Hydra. You are welcomed onto the both of Yiannis and Katerina with open arms and are treated with the ultimate Greek hospitality. From the care and consideration they give you whilst travelling to tell you the ins and outs of the landscapes to the insight into traditional fishing techniques - the experience is unique! You receive breakfast, lunch (including your catch from the day) and fresh fruit. Snorkelling and swimming too makes this a day we wont forget. Thank you both so so so much - i had such a wonderful birthday!

A day with Moby Dick - Leaving the harbour we soon see a whale quietly sitting on the water. It is not long before we understand it is trying to hide from Captain Achab who is really nearby. We are sailing between islets and islands a magic for the unfamiliar. Slowly putt-putting closer to the fishing area next to Moby’s side. Yannis picks up his lines. There’s very little bait left on the hooks but quite a few “congres” and “red snappers” (not sure about the exact species, I ll have to go back). Lunch is cooked on the boat: fresh catch, fava spiced up, salad and plenty of white wine from Yannis’ friend. On the way back to Hydra we pass kayakers finishing circum navigating the Mediterranean (cf pix) the last surprise of the day.

A very special experience - We had a fantastic experience on the boat, seeing spots that we wouldn’t normally be able to see and learning all about the island from Katerina. It was a very special time with the most lovely and authentic meal to top it off. I would recommend the trip as an essential to anyone coming to hydra.

Perfect day to end our Greek Islands cruise - Would recommand this activity for anyone that want to experience Hydra from the sea. We were in Hydra for a day, during our cruise tour around the greek islands. It was the perfect experience to end our cruise. Katerina and Yiannis were waiting for us when we got off the boat, we sailed along the island of Hydra, catch plenty of fish, snorkelled in pue crystal water. We got to eat the fish we catched. The food was delicious, the experience was amazing and Katerina and Yiannis were wonderful.

The most authentic experience in Hydra! - We loved fishing, swimming and eating afterwards the fish we caught. It’s the most unique experience someone can have in the island of Hydra. It was so worth it! Giannis was extremely kind and explained everything the whole day. He is an amazing cook also! Will not forget his fava!!

A Must-Do activity in Hydra! - Our day with Yiannis and his partner Caterina on the boat was exceptional. Absolutely the highlight of our trip to Hydra. The lunch they prepared (freshly caught fish with salad, the best fava ever, salad and wine) was totally delicious and the experience watching the complex and careful process of traditional fishing was super interesting and a once in a lifetime opportunity. The price was fair for the experience that you receive. They took us to amazing swimming locations and let us borrow snorkels to make the most of the crystal clear water. When we arrived Caterina made us Greek coffee and gave us a slice of her homemade cake. In the afternoon they chopped up watermelon for us. It was an idyllic day and highly recommended!
