Book a morning departure
Calmer seas and better underwater visibility usually come earlier in the day—aim for the first departures to maximize snorkeling clarity.
Protect Posidonia
Avoid stepping on seagrass when entering or exiting the water; these meadows are fragile and essential to local ecology.
Bring a light wind layer
Even in summer, the Aegean breeze can be sharp on an exposed deck—pack a thin windbreaker or fleece.
Secure motion-sensitive items
Use a dry bag or zippered pouch for phones and cameras; the catamaran’s decks can be wet when guests board from the sea.
Reef-safe sunscreen
Protects your skin and the marine environment during long sun exposure on deck and in the water.
