Review of Rhodes sunset catamaran cruise with Kallithea Bay swimming, Greek buffet dinner, unlimited drinks, snorkeling, and Aegean views.
“Very friendly staff! Eleni looked after us all making sure we all had enough to drink etc. Catamaran itself is clean and very well looked after, plenty of places to sit and the view can be enjoyed from wherever you choose to place yourself. Food is incredible, plenty to choose from, grilled chicken, salads, feta , pasta , dips and soft bread- all beautiful. Snorkelling equipment is top quality and very clean, saw so many fish in kallithea springs (even saw a beautiful lion fish). Sunset was to die for with romantic music to accompany, the most gorgeous end to a beautiful evening. Perfect for couples also”

“Amazing day at FortyOne! We paid for the Cabana which came with a fruit tray, towels water, sushi (which we substituted for a Santorini salad, Tzatziki and tomato fritters) and a bottle of champagne (which we substituted for 6 alcoholic drinks) The whole experience was wonderful from start to finish. The cabana was comfortable, the beach was beautiful, our waiter (Andreas) was very attentive and the food was delicious.
