Don't miss this trip. - What can I say. Absolutely fantastic trip. Kostas and Spiros were so pleasant and helpful. As an older solo traveller it can sometimes be a challenge but this was a dream. Lovely nibbles and plenty of wine or soft drinks. And a sunset to die for after a swim in Crystal clear waters at Dia island. Throughly recommend.

10/10 experience, would definitely recommend - We chose to go for the sunset cruise and the views were incredible. We took amazing pictures and had a blast. I was a bit anxious because the boat was choppy but the staff on board were so so attentive and reassuring. They really put me at ease. It’s definitely worth the money so I would 100% recommend

Amazing!! Top notch experience. - There was three of us on our trip Friday 6th September and the team who looked after us was as amazing as the views. We had the best experience ever. We couldn’t recommend this enough. The stay at Dia island was majestic, we had so much fun.

Don’t miss a sunset sail in Crete! - It was a lot of fun sailing for the first time! The boat was spacious and comfortable and apparently the newest catamaran in Crete! Spiros and Georgios were great hosts, playing fun music, giving us great drinks and yummy snacks. They also gave us instructions to keep us safe. Swimming in the bay off Dia was lovely. I’m so glad I took this excursion!

Highly recommend - The small group was nice, there is enough space for everyone. We got a got a drink once we got on board, throughout our time the staff was always accommodating for all the soft drinks we wanted and they we also very friendly. Once we got to beach we were given the option of wine and beer. Once we arrived back to port we were given a final shot. This experience was well worth the money and would highly recommended.

Relaxing Way to Watch the Sunset in Crete - Unlike a lot of boat tours that are too overcrowded to let you enjoy yourself, this tour had the perfect amount of people for the space and a crew that was highly attentive to your wants and needs. The views were beautiful and the water was clean and clear. It was a relaxing way to spend an evening in Crete.

Nice trip with good food - Nice trip out to Dia. Did a bit of swimming and snorkelling and someone from my group managed to see an octopus. The food and drinks offered were perfectly nice! Don’t expect a full meal, as it’s mainly nibbles. It was enough food that we came back full. Really nice crew and good atmosphere all around.

Good trip - Relaxing cruise. Crew were friendly and the trip well designed. Seeing the sunset from the sea was magical. Suggest you eat beforehand or bring food. The finger food offered was sparse and not enough to refuel after a swim in the middle of the trip. Nice trip
