Details

Take part in our full day sailing boat trip to Dia Island and spend quality-time in one of the most beautiful bays of Crete! Our tour will start from the old Venetian port of Heraklion and after we all embarked on the boat, we will head to Dia Island. While our sailing boat is moving in silence thanks to the wind force, you will be able to admire breathtaking landscapes. After our one-hour sail, we will drop anchor in a Natura 2000 protected cove of the island.

In the bay, you will be able to swim and snorkel for 1.5 hour in a wild setting. You should be able to see colourful fish and other underwater species. While enjoying your glass of wine and the local food, you will be able to admire the panoramic view of the island of Dia.

After your lunch, you will have another 2-hours break to do whatever you want: you can decide to stay on the boat to sunbathe, reveal your adventurous soul and explore another bay, play water games or go snorkeling to discover the secrets of the Cretan underwater world. Then, we will head back to our starting point to disembark. On our way back, you may have the chance to see dolphins swimming and jumping for you around our boat.

Fantastic day sailing to explore Dia Island and enjoy swimming in the wonderfully clear blue Sea of Crete. Our Skipper was terrific and took care of everything with a friendly smile. It was my wife’s birthday and they helped organise a delicious cake and champagne. Everything about the experience was fabulous! Would very highly recommend :)
