Overall rating
We had the most incredible day on this private sailboat charter to Día Island! Our group of five was blown away by how perfect everything was from start to finish. The captain and first mate were professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we felt safe and had fun. They provided snorkel gear, pool noodles, and even a life vest for one of our friends who isn’t the strongest swimmer—so everyone could relax and enjoy the water. The first mate was so thoughtful and even lent us his speaker so we could play our own music, which made the whole experience feel even more special. After swimming and exploring, he prepared the most delicious shrimp pasta for us right on board—it was honestly one of the best meals of our trip. The whole day felt personalized, relaxed, and fun. We laughed, swam, ate, and made amazing memories. Without a doubt, it was the highlight of our trip, and we’re already talking about booking again next time. I’d absolutely recommend this experience to anyone looking for something unforgettable—you won’t regret it!
Great team, we had a wonderful day in a cove sheltered from the wind. You can book with your eyes closed, reliable company and super kind and pleasant people.
