PAPANIKOLIS CRUISE BOAT
Happy Customers(YEARLY)
Hour Daily Cruise
YEARS CRUISING
The boat was built in the most famous shipyard of Greece “PSARROS” by the same ship carpenter to give it the initial line of the traditional ship.
It is made of Samos pine, and generally its wood consists of iroko, eucalyptus and cypress.
When my father passed away, my son and I decided to continue doing what we loved so much! The sea. That’s how I found the English owners of “Maria” and with a long process of documents to bring them back to Greece I became the owner in 2011 of today’s “Papanikolis. It was rebuilt and in the summer of 2015 it went out again for cruises in its native waters !!! It started with Scorpio Meganisi cruises and in 2018 we started the incredible cruise that we do until today with my son now captain.
The boat has fixed ladders on both sides for easy access of our customers safely and not moving. We also provide lifebuoys for children. children and adults, masks, snorkel, flippers and sea hammocks, for moments of enjoyment in the turquoise waters of the Ionian Sea.
You need a towel and sunscreen and leave everything else to us !!! Boat capacity 47 people. Seats firmly around the boat to see from everywhere and mattresses as well as sofa in the back. We are in direct contact with people for any question they have to explain to them.
