Great day out with Fabio! We had a trip to Kioni and various beautiful bays swimming in the beautiful waters. The boat is extremely spacious and plenty of space to sunbathe or relax in the shade. Delicious lunch & super responsive with the emails. Definitely recommend!

Beautiful day. We visited Afales for a swim, then sailed to Kioni for lunch, and then returned to Kefalonia at 5:30 PM. Everything was beautiful and well-kept. The boat was really comfortable.

From the moment you step onto the delightful boat, Tama and are royally welcomed by the ever smiling owner, Fabio you know you’re in for a very special experience. My husband and I had been fortunate to be on board previously but wanted to share our adventure with our best friends. We were on the sunset evening crossing across to Polis Bay ( off Ithaca ),dropping anchor to plunge into the warm September water. Before long, everyone was out on the paddle board and snorkelling while it was still quite light. On board one or two of us poured glasses of Prosecco and cracked open cold beers, watching the fun from the deck. Once everyone was on board, we dried off and dug into a plate of bruschetta. Finally we turned around and headed back to Fiscardo, the harbour flowing like Christmas lights as we pulled into port. A spectacular evening out on the Ionian Sea and a wonderful experience. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect holiday memory.

My friends and I had an incredible boat tour with Fabio and Valentin last week! The trip was amazing from start to finish, and it was an experience I will never forget. Fabio explained the boat and its history which was a great start to the trip 😁. Fabio knew all of the best stops and helped us to spot the turtles whilst we were snorkelling. The boat was stunning and the beaches were breathtaking - it was perfect! Fabio and Valentin ensured we had everything we needed, the food was incredible (especially the Tzatziki) and they truly did everything they could to make sure we had the best time. Thank you so much Valentin and Fabio for being so accommodating, and making the day so so wonderful for us all (we can not stop talking about it) ! 😁🐢❤️

Had a brilliant day out with a group of 8 friends. Fabio, Lucy and Valentina were fantastic and made the whole experience really special. We spent the day swimming in crystal-clear waters, enjoying delicious home-cooked food and plenty of drinks, while learning all about the surrounding islands. We were also lucky enough to swim with turtles in a beautiful spot that we had almost completely to ourselves. Such a fun and memorable day from start to finish, couldn’t recommend the trip more highly!

A truly iconic boat experience that we won’t forget. Thank you so much Fabio and Roberto for such a fun day out on the boat. We stopped at several beautiful, secluded swimming spots that were carefully chosen based on the conditions. The food and service throughout was perfection and we didn’t have to lift a finger. Most of all we loved hanging out with Fabio and Roberto.

We absolutely loved this tour! It is a great way to see the island. Fabio and Roberto were so hospitable and made the day relaxing and fun! The boat is very comfortable and clean and the size of the tour meant we had ample space on the boat. A highlight of the day was swimming with the turtles, as well as the delicious lunch that our hosts cooked up for us.

Thanks Fabio and Roberto for a fantastic day sailing around Kefalonia and Ithaca. Great company, great food and wine, and very generous hosts. We were lucky enough to swim with a large turtle (so majestic!). Plenty of snorkelling gear and a paddleboard, crystal clear waters. A perfect day with new friends! Highly recommend.

Turtles … they found us turtles…Joining a mixed cruises with others can be a bit daunting. Our gang were brilliant English, Australian & South African, sounds like the start of a good joke .. We all had great time and well looked after by the boys. Lunchtime was a nice comfy communal affair with a good amount of banter.. We fortunately didn’t stick to our schedule after lunch and stayed in our bay. We were all keen to see turtle’s swimming in the wild.. The boys found them, our swimmers went out to meet them, calmly we all gently swam around watching one turtle chilling out in front of his/her audience. Absolutely Awesome, thank you team. A great day out. David & Jules - Team England

Absolutely amazing day sailing around Kefalonia and Ithaca with Fabio and Roberto! They were both so friendly, kind and welcoming, and kept us very well topped up with beers and Prosecco throughout the day with a delicious and healthy lunch. We stopped at beautiful swimming spots and were even lucky enough to swim with a turtle, which was incredible. Such a fun, relaxed and memorable day from start to finish, definitely the highlight of our holiday. Couldn’t recommend Fabio and CCC sailing enough!
An experience that I, my wife, and my son will definitely remember for a long time. I recommend Fabio to everyone! And thanks also to Roberto!

We spent a wonderful day sailing, discovering hidden coves and stunning spots between Ithaca and Kefalonia, immersed in a spectacular sea and a totally relaxing atmosphere. And, as a wonderful surprise, we even got to see sea turtles! Special thanks to Fabio, our skipper, who accompanied us to discover these wonderful places and also prepared a truly excellent lunch for us on board, with delicious traditional Greek specialties. Thanks also to Roberto, who was always available to us throughout the day, helping to make the experience even more pleasant and relaxing. One of those experiences that stays in your heart and that we would do again without a second thought!
We had a fantastic day out on the boat! A huge thank you to Fabio and Robin for their kindness, friendliness and great attention throughout the day. Beautiful swimming spots, paddle, crystal-clear waters and even turtles: a perfect day at sea!

Last week we had a wonderfull trip on the boat! The way from Lassi to Fiscardo was so beautiful. Fabio and Maya where great (little Sofia - his daughter joined us - what an amazing social little girl - we love her) the trip was so relaxing! Only 8 people on a big sailing boat, it felt like it was totally private! Drinks - nice lunch, great swim stops, plenty of space to relax. Absolute worth the money! We went to Ithaka (great historic story of Odysseus). And to turtle bay, where I swim with a turtle. Thanks you for this amazing experience (we where with 2 adult and our daughter 14 years) gr, Shane, Jill & Ivy

This trip is incredible. The coves and bays that you swim in are spectacular with picture perfect water. Captain Fabio is a so kind and helpful and happy. Lunch was delicious. I would highly highly recommend and as a unique and memorable experience. This is so much better than your average Greek island swimming trip.

No doubt one of the best days of our holiday. From the moment we stepped on board, Fabio and his family made us feel relaxed and excited for the day. We sailed to some beautiful bays in Ithaca where Fabio explained the marine life and history over coffee before we jumped in to explore with snorkels and a paddle board. In Polis Bay, Fabio prepared a delicious freshly made lunch after which we headed across to Kefalonia where we spotted and swam with turtles - simply breath-taking. If that wasn’t enough, we also saw a monk seal in the bay, and were joined by leaping tuna as we sailed back to Fiskardo. I can’t recommend this day more highly - stunning nature and wonderful hosts!

We had a fantastic day with Crystal Clear Cruises. Fabio is a really friendly, great captain and host. With only eight of us on the trip, we had plenty of room to relax on board. We visited a number of beautiful spots with lots of time for swimming and paddle boarding. We would definitely book again for a more intimate and exclusive experience.

We had an amazing private boat trip with Crystal Clear Cruising for our group of 8. From start to finish, everything was fantastic. The crew, Luca and Danny, were incredibly welcoming, professional, and made sure we were looked after all day. The food and drinks provided were excellent, and their hospitality really made the experience special. We visited several beautiful beaches with crystal-clear turquoise water, and one of the highlights was spotting three turtles during the trip! The whole day was relaxed, fun, and perfectly organized. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Crystal Clear Cruising to anyone looking for a memorable day on the water. Thank you, Luca and Danny!

We had a truly wonderful day on the water with Crystal Clear Cruising. Luca was a phenomenal host -- ensuring we had a great time, and finding beautiful and private coves to swim and explore. The lunch he prepared was fresh and tasty! And once the sails were up, we enjoyed the serenity of the sea and the sun powered by just the wind. It was amazing! We'd absolutely recommend Fabio & Luca and CCC for your boat hire in Fiskardo.

We had the most perfect day yesterday with Fabio on his boat. First of all great communication booking. On the day we were met by Fabio. We had the most wonderful tour of Ithaca bays, turtles and kefalonia bays. Lunch was delightful and drinks were flowing. Fabio’s local knowledge gave us the perfect experience. He adapted the tour for our needs, taking us to destinations that were wasp free. Fabio was great a host, funny and great conversation. I would do this tour again and again, just wonderful. Highly recommended.
Booked with Fabio several months ago for a private cruise with my family. From start to finish the entire experience was second to none. Our captain was the affable Luca - attentive, knowledgeable and very congenial. We had a fabulous sailing day - cruising across to Ithaca and stopping at beautiful, unspoilt coves for swimming, snorkling and paddle boarding in the azure blue and turquoise waters. We even saw loggerhead turtles swimming gently in their natural habitat. This was our first trip to Kefalonia and cruising with CCC was definitely a highlight. Thank you Fabio and Luca for such a lifetime experience one which I highly recommend.

We were in Kefalonia for 28 days, we booked our boat trip which was originally cancelled due to captain being unwell. It was our last week, and we were so looking forward to our trip! it felt like it was destined not to happen, but it did and I have to say it was a day to remember in so many ways, not only was the trip and food and staff excellent, we also saw Dolphins which I'm led to believe is not the norm. I would just like to thank Fabio and his mate, who made us feel so welcome and also ticked one of my wife's bucket list, which was to have a go and paddle boarding 'THANK YOU SO MUCH' Steve & Jackie

We had an unforgettable full-day boat tour (10 AM to 6 PM) with Crystal Clear Cruises from Fiskardo Harbor, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Captain Lucas was exceptional — knowledgeable, friendly, and full of fascinating historical context about the places we visited around Ithaka and Kefalonia. We stopped at several hidden gems, swam in crystal-clear waters, and even had the magical experience of swimming with sea turtles. The boat itself is a beautiful 20-meter sailing boat, very comfortable and not overcrowded (maximum of 10 guests), which made the trip feel intimate and relaxing. We also got the chance to experience real sailing, which was a highlight! Delicious food and drinks were served on board, adding to the pleasure of the day. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and enriching sailing adventure in Kefalonia!
