Overview

Join us for a semi-private morning cruise from Heraklion aboard a sleek, modern catamaran. Your adventure begins with a warm welcome from our crew. As we sail to Dia Island, relax on sunbeds, sip detox water and enjoy a light, fresh brunch while taking in the peaceful sea views.
At Dia Island, dive into fun with water toys — inflatable slide, sea scooter, kayak, and stand-up paddleboards (SUPs). Float on our pink flamingo or glide across the waves — the sea is your playground.
Back on board, enjoy a healthy Cretan lunch designed by a nutritionist, made from fresh, organic local ingredients. Seasonal Mediterranean dishes include seafood and simple fresh options. Pair your meal with Greek wine or beer.
After lunch, relax on deck or swim again in the warm Cretan waters. As we sail back to Heraklion, feel refreshed, peaceful, and full of energy — the perfect end to a morning at sea.
