Overview

Discover the warm, crystal-clear waters of Proti island in western Messenia in this half-day private cruise, which is ideal for families with young or older children!

From the harbor of Marathopoli, sail to Proti, whose name derives from the sea god Proteus, son of Poseidon. According to mythology, Proti Island resembles a crocodile, and when Proteus was angry, he'd transform into the beast and take the shape of the island! The small Messenian island is full of pirate stories and shipwrecks that you will love exploring with the boat's snorkeling equipment.

Enjoy relaxing on the tiny sandy beach Vourlia, swimming, fishing, or hiking up hill towards the top of the island to cherish the views of the Ionian Sea. Your certified licensed captain will have snacks and drinks for you! Back in Marathopoli, you will have many options for a unique seafood lunch or dinner!

This cruise is suitable for children of all ages and swimming knowledge is required.

This tour will be arranged at the optimum time taking into account various considerations, such as your overall schedule, and operating hours. Please let your travel specialist know in advance if you have any specific constraints.

Captain Nikos ensured that this trip would be a favorite for the entire family! The blues of the ocean were to die for! The sea was so calm and clear. The company and snacks were awesome. We didn't even make it to Proti island... We were having way too much fun getting a customized private route through the bay. Would do again 100% Read more

Tips for future travelers

I would say if you have Captain Nikos... Tell him what kind of experience you're hoping to have and trust his recommendation. We did, and have zero regrets. Experience was better than any of us excepted.
