Very great area. Hotel Messinian Bay. Right by the water. Good food, nice room. Great view. Own beach. Nice restaurants in the area. Taxi is cheap. Olympia is nearby. The cradle of the Olympic Games. Many water activities once distance away. Great family destination!!!
5/5 Lambros was fantastic and gave us places to see which were beautiful. The boat was a 5 meter boat with a 30HP engine which was just perfect for our trip around the area. When we come back to kalamata we will definitely book again.
We had an amazing experience with Alfa Marine! The whole experience was seamless. The guidelines on using the boat were clear, the equipment is in great shape, they gave us advice on where to go given our timeframe, and responded quickly to all our questions. Hands down one of the highlights of our trip to Kalamata!
We had a wonderful time on this boat tour! Driving the boat ourselves was a great experience, and the operation of the boat was incredibly easy and intuitive. The guide was really helpful and friendly, and he gave us great tips for places to visit. We also loved that we could make a small stop along the way and jump into the water for a swim. The nature around us was absolutely beautiful and made the whole experience even more special. We highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a fun and relaxing adventure!
