This experience really delivered! - This was a perfect, slightly more than half day outing that delivered more than I hoped! The boat was comfortable and spotless, plenty of seats and covered areas, not too crowded. Wonderful hosting crew, very nice and accommodating. The captain was great. The sites were beautiful! And I don’t know how he did it, but the chef made a beautiful meal for all of us for lunch on board… Orzo and shrimp, yummy mussels, chicken, Greek salad. That was after we were greeted with bread and cheese options, complementary beer, wine, and sodas. It was a beautiful day, we felt very safe, and when we anchored down near Dia, we had options of snorkels, paddle boards, noodles. Thank you!

BEST BOAT DAY! - Best boat day ever!! Highly recommended especially if you’re staying in the city. The island we sailed to was beautiful with the most clear water! We swam, snorkeled, paddle boarded, jumped of the boat, tanned, and enjoyed the amazing food. The crew was amazing and so kind. 100% need to do in Crete! We had 3 boat day during our 2 week Greek island trip and this one was our favorite!

Lovely cruise at Dia Island! - We had an amazing crew who took us to Dia island in May! We loved it, and the crew made this trip truly enjoyable! From a lovely captain to Wesley, who was incredibly helpful across the whole trip and made us laugh a lot- a real entertainer! And Giulia the chef- we are still dreaming her amazing food here in France with her special cake! Wowowow! You cannot visit the island but you can swim all around, the water is turquoise, and they will equip you with anything you need- from paddle to water mask, we even got a Pink Flamingo 💓thank you for this amazing cruise, we truly recommend it for half day detachment from Heraklion and …if you want to enjoy till the last moment, before your planes leaves :) we could enjoy the all morning and part of the afternoon and still catch our plane at 20 with no rush! Very easy to reach at the port with taxi 50 meters across if you need to go back to your hotel

Fun and beautiful - Easy to find. Fun and chill staff. Good food, nice people, just the right length. No notes, we would would book with them again. Boat was beautiful and comfortable. Don't forget your sunscreen in case you take a snooze on the way home.

Would 100% recommend!! - Loved this trip, the crew were excellent, there was plenty of space on the boat, and the food was excellent! Drinks were readily available and the bay we stopped in was lovely and calm (despite it being quite a windy day), the SUPs, swimming and snorkelling was great and the bay was not at all crowded. Would 100% recommend this trip!!

Best day in Dia 🇬🇷 - This was such a wonderful experience to end our trip. The captain and crew were wonderful. They had snorkeling equipment and paddle boards. The lunch was great and the drink choices were good. The best was it was a catamaran and so there was plenty of room compared to a sail boat. Definitely at must in Heraklion.

The itinerary advertised is incorrect. No time to enjoy actually being at Dia. - Disappointed with the timing… booked it being told the day was 09:30-15:30. We left the dock at 10:30 and arrived back at 14:30. Day was very rushed. Boat, staff & food all perfect but very disappointing to advertise the day as being 2 hours longer than what it was. Extremely rushed, arrived at dia, took photos had a swim, ate and left. Loosing 2 hours off a day trip that isn’t cheap isn’t acceptable.
