Super fun experience with a great team! - Fantastic staff - very well-run. Over 2 days we jet skied twice and parasailed twice. Each time the staff gave us clear instructions and were very experienced. The equipment was in great shape as well. The rates were very reasonable. We highly recommend Popeyes!

Despite fear son still enjoyed. - DE activity is suitable from the age of 4, according to Popeye. Our 6-year-old son got too much fear when we were already in DE boat. So we didn’t ‘fly’. Upon returning, Popeye offered to go on his own. Now my daughter (15) went along. We enjoyed it very much! Good guidance EN a very relaxed flight.

Great experience for family and friends! - The staff was very friendly and relaxed. The settlement went smoothly, although the deadline had to be postponed once due to the too strong wind, so attention is also being paid to this. The experience was definitely worth it! Highly recommended!

Adventure, Fun & Kindness – All in One Place! - We visited Popeye Water Sports in Rethymno yesterday during their happy hour, and it was one of the highlights of our trip! Cathy was incredibly helpful, kind, and made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. We started with parasailing, which was an absolutely amazing experience—breathtaking views and such a smooth, safe ride thanks to the professional and reassuring team. After that, we jumped on the jet skis, which were so much fun! The staff were very informative and made sure we felt confident and safe the whole time. To top it all off, we went on their boat trip to the caves. We had the chance to swim inside one, which was such a unique and magical experience. After that, we headed over to a private beach where we swam to shore and enjoyed some time in the beautiful, clear water. They even brought us water to keep everyone hydrated, which was such a thoughtful touch. The way everyone at Popeye’s looks after you and genuinely cares is just wonderful. Overall, it was a day full of unforgettable activities, stunning scenery, and the kindest people. We can’t wait to go back and do it all again!

Good experience - My kids tried parasailing, a nice experience. A little lack of information on the website, but responds quickly to inquiries. Easy to book. A little little communication from the staff on the trip itself, they did not talk to my children or to me. Clearly this is something they do repeatedly throughout the day, little commitment. Still seems safe, a good experience!
