The team at Alimos Marina was excellent. From our first welcome until our last goodbye, we were met with kindness, efficiency, good humour and practical help.
George, our skipper, handled the boat beautifully and we managed to travel to several islands where we swam in crystal clear water. Vassiliki assisted with everything on the day and ensured that we had ice-cold drinks. The boat was in immaculate condition and well equipped with a shower to wash off the sea water after swimming as well as a good fridge / Bluetooth for your music. Highly recommend.
