Have a look at the video below of a fishing trip we did in September 2013. Over more than 500 meters deep we caught a big shark. It was a ‘prehistoric’ cow shark and they are harmless to people. They belong to a family called Hexanchidae, which comes from the Greek for "six arches”, referring to the fact that some Cow Sharks have six gill slits. This is unique since just about every other shark in the world has only five gill slits.
Great video of a fishing trip with the Poseidon.
After a successful fishing trip your catch of the day can be specially prepared in one of the local Makrigialos tavernas near the harbour, making it a perfect end for an unforgettable fishing day.
