Traveling is about exploring new places, meeting people, sharing experiences, learning about history, and above all having fun.

Our sailing tours are designed based on safety, experiencing nature, human interaction and cultural exchange.

Our knowledgeable crew is happy to share all the local knowledge concerning the surrounding nature and the history of the area.

You will be encouraged to participate in sailing if you wish to and even take the helm of our large yachts under the guidance and supervision of our professionals.

We will anchor in secluded bays at a minimum disturbance. Take your time and relax, just make sure that you grab a mask and dive in the crystal clear water.

Our organic, local fresh lunch served on board has been one more reason why our guests continue talking about our tours over and over again.

Cần Quan Tâm

Our crew will meet at the Old Venetian port and welcome you on board, where you will be given a briefing about safety and boat handling. We set our sails and we are off to our destination,the beautiful Dia island. Dia is an uninhabited island, 7 nautical miles north of Heraklion and is protected by the Natura 2000 project because of its biodiversity. Our trip there lasts almost one hour. We set anchor on either Agios Georgios or Panagia bay (depending on the weather conditions), which are located on the south part of the island. Both coves are known for their green, crystal waters surrounded by the protected wildlife, like the medium sized “Falco Eleonorae” the lizard Podarcis erchardii schiebeli, the wild goat Capra Aegagrus Cretica and the monkseal Monachus monachus. For about one hour and a half, you will enjoy these beautiful water with swimming, snorkeling or sunbathing! Cool refreshments and seasonal fruit will accompany the fun! After your lunch and perhaps after a quick dive, we will set our sails back to Heraklion port. Have your cameras ready in case we spot some of our lovely mammal friends, the dolphins.

Had a lovely sail over to the island, plenty of time in a bay to have a swim/SUP/snorkel. We had a delicious salad lunch on the boat before sailing back to Heraklion port. Just a wonderful way to spend a few hours. Saw a few of the falcons flying around.
Cannot miss when in Crete!

We took the afternoon sail to Dia Island on our last day in Crete. I initially didn't think Dia Island was worth visiting since it's uninhabited and looked very barren and rocky. A local recommended I go, and this excursion caught my eye. It's a fun 1 hour sail out from Heraklion port, where you'll dock in a quiet bay for swimming, snorkelling and paddle boarding (all equipment provided by the crew, including lifejackets if you are not a strong swimmer). It was great to snorkel (they have masks only option if you want) and see the marine life in such clean waters. The paddleboard was fun and my friend and I enjoyed this for the first time with the helpful instruction of the staff. After an hour of swimming, we received a delicious organic meal of greek salad and chicken souvlaki. There was also white wine and bowl of fresh cut fruit for dessert. Since this was October, the sun set a little earlier than I'd like and our swim was a little cold since the sun was low, so I'd recommend the daytime sail this time of year. I highly recommend this excursion
