Snorkeling around Skiathos
Get away from the crowds and join us for an unforgettable snorkeling adventure out into the blue, where we’ll take you to some of the best sites around Skiathos for meeting the “locals”.
At Dolphin Diving Skiathos we love the water, and can’t wait to share our passion for all the amazing things there are to see, so we have a couple of options for you.
We go out every day, morning and afternoon, taking divers and snorkelers to one of our many stunning dive spots around Skiathos and its surrounding islands. Most of these are located close to shore, and start at a depth of only a few meters. It goes without saying, they are always packed with a riot of fish life of all different types that, together with the crystal-clear water, make the experience truly breath taking. After a short ride out on our comfortable and covered 10-meter boat (during which we also often see dolphins and even monk seals), we’ll anchor up for over an hour while the divers go out, giving you ample time to really immerse yourself in this magical world, entering and exiting the water as you please using the ladder at the back deck.
We’ll give you a quick safety briefing and useful tips on what there is to see, and provide all the professional-quality gear you’ll need (mask, snorkel, and fins, as well as wetsuit and weights if you like). Refreshments and light snacks will also be available on board.
This is also a great option if you have friends or family members joining us for scuba diving, and you want to stay together and share the experience. You can even watch them as they descend and go off on their exploration!
Alternatively, if you would like to extend your experience, we will also be scheduling regular afternoon and half-day excursions just for snorkelers (*subject to a minimum number of participants*). For these excursions, we’ll stop at one or two different spots over 1-2 or 3-4 hours (depending on if it is a single trip or half-day excursion). Again, we’ll provide the briefing, all the equipment, and the refreshments, but this time our experienced instructor will also be in the water with you to give you tips and training in freediving (using apnoea or breath hold techniques), so you can practice ducking down and gliding effortlessly among all the fish life in perfect harmony.
