Top-notch rental company. We wanted to rent a boat at short notice without any problems and made the perfect choice with the rental company. Communication was quick and friendly. The boat briefing, in particular, was very detailed and well-done. The boat itself was clean and had everything you need. The price for the fuel was also fair. Overall, we highly recommend the rental company!

Everything was absolutely fine. Something that I'd like to add if you rent a boat, and not only from Damulis, is that they can't dock/anchor the boat to close to the beach at Balos, because of the law, so if you're like me, with camera equipment and a drone, you ain't got a choice but to fly it from the boat, so you can't enjoy the actual beach. If you want to enjoy the beach, just book a trip with the commercial ships. *There is a dock at Gramvousa though. I can't say anything about our captain, Lefteris (I hope I didn't wrote it wrong). A well mannered greek lad, with good knowledge about the area, that even showed us some "hidden" spots along the way. I can't recommend him enough.
