“We had an absolutely amazing experience! The skippers were the best – professional, friendly, and very attentive. The food was fantastic and the open bar with snacks made it a true all-inclusive, worry-free package. We booked the 3:30 pm tour and were rewarded with a breathtaking sunset right in the middle of the sea – simply unforgettable. There was plenty of equipment available for water activities, and everything was well organized. Highly recommended! ☀️⛵️🍸”

Review of Crete’s all-inclusive sailing trip to Dia Island, with seafood lunch, drinks, snorkeling, paddleboarding, pricing, and practical tips.
“A great day out! George and Niko were incrediblley friendly and I feel like we became fast friends through the day. The water was cool but clear as crystal, easy to see the fish! The sun was great at drying us off upon leaving the ocean for a fresh made meal which we enjoyed with our new found friends (including the other visitors) on the boat. The island is practically untouched and has only a few buildings. Stunning views all round, throughout the whole trip...”

Review of Crete’s small-group speedboat cruise to Gramvousa and Balos, with swim stops, drinks, snorkeling gear, and early access to the beaches.
“We took the speedboat tour to Balos beach and Gramvousa. The weather was a bit rough and we were told very well what the conditions were. We advocated to go on the trip some other did not. Boat ride was as advertised but never unsafe. It was about 30 minutes one way. We spend an hour on the historic site and a little over two hours at the beach. We were the first to arrive by boat which gave us maximum time before the large amount of people showed up. Highly recommend the morning tour. Thanks for a great experience.”
Review of Crete’s Agios Nikolaos catamaran cruise, with swimming, snorkeling, SUP, sushi-style drinks, dinner, and Spinalonga views.
“The cruise was enjoyable but not exceptional. The boat felt crowded and we were not even at full capacity. The staff were attentive and friendly and the food was great. We stopped at two swimming areas and got to snorkel and paddleboard around. I’d recommend booking early to get a lower price to make it more worth your while. Overall it was a wonderful and romantic experience.”

Review of Crete’s Chania morning catamaran cruise, with swimming, snorkeling, SUPs, healthy lunch, open bar, pricing, and practical tips.
“The catamaran looked awesome from the pier which is as far as we got. We paid 20euros for a taxi to take us to the location we were provided and learned they had us down for a different catamaran at a different port. Unfortunately, that location was 30 minutes away and we missed it through no fault of ours. There’s little to do in Crete and it was hot as blazes so we paid another 20euros to be taken back to the ship. Total bummer!! Poor communication and basically were told sorry, we’ll refund you. Duh. Huge disappointment!”
