Dionysis Gasparatos'family have been fishermen since their great-grandfathers'days. Dionysis was raised on the seaboats,following his grandfather's and father's steps. He is a fourth generation fisherman. "Fishing on a caique is a magical and unique experience which everyone should be exposed to,even once in their lifetime." In 2019, Captain Dionysis along with his wife Christina decided to offer
this unique trip to all those who would enjoy the experience of caique-fishing including the art of woking on it. Dionysis stresses the active participation of the people who decide to take their tour. "You can be our "sailors" and travel with us to pristine beaches of unparalleled beauty,finding out about fishing with nets. A mouthwatering meal on the beach with a variety of from-the-net-to-the-grill fish!"
THE TOUR BEGINS
The two fishing boats which provide the tour, "Aristoteles" and "Fabulous" depart from the port of Agia Kyriaki in Zola village. THE MORNING TOUR
The tour starts at 9:00 a.m and it finishes at 15:30 p.m. The participants are welcome aboard with homemade cookies,coffee and tea. After leaving the port, the boat heads for the spot where the fishing nets had been thrown the previous night. "Everyone who wishes to help us get the fish off the nets is most welcome!"
After this enjoyable experience, the boats will head for the magical beaches that can be approached only by boats. AMIDI BEACH
The beach with the emerald-blue crystal clear waters,where Captain Dionysis will take the scales off the fish, while the tour participants will enjoy swimming and diving in the sea. FTERI BEACH
The most popular out of the three beaches, Fteri will offer the daring visitor the chance to dive from a rock in the sea to Fteri's turqoise waters. BLUE LAGOON
A true miracle of nature, Blue Lagoon is a part of the sea which becomes light blue,in contrast to the deep blue water around it. Its beauty cannot be described with words. Only when you pass by it can you really understand how beautiful it is. KAMARI BEACH
This is the last place we will be visiting,in which we will be enjoying a mouth-watering meal on the beach. The main beautiful feature of this beach is the cave where the meal is going to take place and the smaller nearby caves which have been formed by the waves through the centuries. The colour of the sea is the triumph of blue.
*In all the beaches you will have the opportunity to swim ,sunbathe or go snorkelling and explore the seabed. THE MEAL
The meal includes the catch of the day on the grill and on the frying pan, being fritted with meslin. There is also the celebrated Greek salad, bread toasted on the grill, homemade lemonade, fruit of the season, plenty of Cefalonian wine, limoncello and many others. "All these you can enjoy in the cool shade of the 20-metre-high cave"
AFTERNOON TOUR
We also offer private(family and/or friends) or group tours in order to enjoy the sunset. We set off at 16:30 and return at 21:30. The only difference with the morning tour is that we do not lift the fishing nets. We will pay a visit to all the beaches where you can swim and dive and then you will enjoy the meal at Kamari beach.
*Every tour can host up to 16 people. "Join us in order to be exposed to the art of fishing and have an unforgettable and unique experience full of wonderful memories".
