Awesome Time! - I highly recommend Chania Diving! Whether you’re snorkeling or diving, you’re in for an unforgettable experience. They took us to some stunning spots, were super friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. Great conversations, beautiful locations, and genuinely kind people—I’d book with them again in a heartbeat!

Snorkelling in Chania/Souda Bay - Travelling to Crete on a P&O cruise ship decided to book this snorkel trip via trip advisor. The advance Communication from Chania Diving Centre was superb. We provided details of our ship and our ETA at the port. They sent a minibus clearly liveried as Chania Diving Centre and it picked us up at the dock gate literally 100 yards from the ships gangway. The friendly driver Nikos arrived bang on time at 0850 and told us a bit about Souda Bay as we drove to the ‘dive site’. A rigid inflatable boat whisked us off and we stopped at 2x good snorkelling sites. I seen a parrotfish, trumpet fish, spider crab and lots of other species. Very friendly guides Vasili (aka Basil) from South Africa and Andreus from Turin, Italy. We had a great morning and got dropped off back at our cruise ship by about 1-45. Very good value and friendly team. 🇬🇷🐠🐡🤿

An Unforgettable Boat Trip! - We had such an amazing time on this boat trip! We could choose between diving and snorkeling, and we opted for snorkeling, which we thoroughly enjoyed. First, we were taken to a beautiful beach where we snorkeled and saw so much diverse marine life: starfish, giant sea urchins with long spikes, many different kinds of fish, and various snails/creatures on the seabed and rocks. Afterwards, we were transported to a large cave where we also could do some snorkeling, which was incredibly cool! The instructors/guides were absolutely fantastic, everyone was in such a good mood and we had a lot of laughter and a good time, making it a perfect day, 10/10! We were even picked up and dropped off at our hotel, which felt like such a luxury! We would absolutely recommend this trip to anyone looking for a rich and exciting day filled with lots of swimming and exploration. We even had so much fun we didn’t have time to take any pictures! Best regards, Anna and Tuva

10/10 - Here you get a great experience for cheap money. If you have never dive before, I highly recommend a first trip here. We stayed in platanias, around 20-30min outside Chania. From there we got arranged pickup without extra cost by a really nice driver. When we arrived we were greeted by some friendly instructors. We had only booked snorkeling, but when we asked them if it was possible to join the diving, they also drove to pick up more dive equipment. A lovely boat trip with nice people on the blue sea later, we got snorkled for a while. Then we drove to the next stop where we dive into a mine opening. Here the instructors should have shouted for how good they are, as well as nice. 10/10

Super cool experience with awesome staff - Awesome experience! Super cool staff with Basil, Jared and Andrea were extremely helpful and we had a really good time. Great diving/snorkling spots , cool to see the remains of an old shipwreck and all the different fishes. We were also lucky enough to catch a sea turtle while we were on our way to the second spot, enormous creature.

Awesome time snorkeling on this beautiful island! - Great time snorkeling. The water clarity and visibility was incredible. They took us to an amazing cave, we snorkeled back into it about 50 meters, it was amazing. The crew were extremely professional, friendly and helpful. It would recommend to anyone and would like to check out more snorkeling adventures with them! 5 stars!

Professional diving center with friendly instructors - We booked a snorkeling trip with Chania Diving Center on our holiday in Crete in May. We are a family of 4 and it was a perfect activity for us. I had questions in advance regarding the weather and the conditions at sea, and received quick answers to everything I was wondering about. The instructors were nice and professional, and we felt taken care of and safe during the entire trip. It was a bit cold in the sea in May but we were prepared for that, and we were given good wetsuits which made it go just fine. The water was also clear and we loved snorkling for the first time. Recommended!

I would not recommend... - I would not recommend this tour at all. Their communication was horrible and at the last minute, they told me they couldn’t pick me up and refused to refund me my money and no reason was given. They said I did not communicate with them and I have proof of emails that I sent with no response.
