But the aim is not only to swim alone, is to love the sea, understand their limits, when we play with waves and when we stop.

Our lessons have always fun and your children will feel safe and happy and most of the times they don’t want to finish.

Happy swimmers say about us...

Grâce à Katerina et Spyros, nos enfants ont appris à nager. Ils sont tout simplement fantastiques avec les enfants et savent les mettre à l'aise. De plus ils sont très sympathiques et très flexibles. La prochaine fois que nous viendrons, nous irons faire une balade en kayak avec eux. Je recommande fortement leurs services 👌

Our kids had an amazing time learning how to swim with Katerina and Spiros! At only 3 and 5 years old they can now both swim. And they love it ! Katrina and Spiros are very good with children and they have transformed my kids into two little 🐟. We can’t wait to come back next year and keep learning.

Spyros has been teaching both our kids how to swim this summer and I cannot thank him enough. They've made an amazing progress from the first day and they've thoroughly enjoyed their lessons. He has a lovely manner with the kids and is very knowledgeable and professional. He also has been very accommodating in terms of scheduling their lessons and meeting their individual needs. We'll definitely be in touch next summer! Highly recommended!

These guys truly know about exceptional service and looking after their customers. We were a bit intimidated by the thought of having to organise accommodation, transport etc. Spyros and his team took the headache away and helped us with everything. We had an absolute blast at the swimming adventure. We are definitely coming back next year with our friends. Thank you Spyros for such a wonderful experience.
