What to expect
Departing from the port of Souda, enjoy a relaxing journey through the crystal-clear waters of Souda Bay, accompanied by pleasant music and panoramic views. As the boat glides through the bay, you will pass by Souda Island, which stands like a guardian at the entrance of the port, as well as the nearby small islet of Leon. On Souda Island, you will also see the historic Fortezza, a Venetian fortress built in 1571. The cruise continues toward the northwestern side of Souda Bay, where the rugged cliffs of the Akrotiri peninsula reveal hidden natural landscapes. On the return journey, you will sail across Souda Bay, enjoying views of the surrounding coastline. Above the bay, you can also admire the ancient city of Aptera, one of the most important city-states of ancient Crete. Shortly after, on Kalami Hill, the historic Izzeddin Fortress appears.
