Sissi Fishing Trips | About Us

Your boat. Your pace. Your adventure.

DESPOINA is a classic Greek fishing boat available for private charter, giving you and your group an authentic taste of life on the Cretan sea. Whether you're seasoned anglers or complete beginners, our friendly skipper will have you fishing like a local in no time.

We sail from the charming village of Sissi — one of Crete's best-kept secrets — into crystal-clear waters where sea bream, bass, and octopus are just waiting to be found. No crowds, no rush, just the open sea and good company.
