Pirate Boat Trip to Koufonisi from Makris Gialos

Enjoy a day in Crete aboard our pirate boat trip to Koufonisi departing from Makris Gialos Port. Situated in the Libyan Sea, it is the biggest in a cluster of islets, and it has a distinct historical and natural heritage. On our way, we will pass by the breathtaking bay formed by rock formations. While we sail, children can enjoy a special animation program with various adventure games such as treasure hunts and face painting.

Koufosini has a total of 36 beaches with the finest sand and emerald water, perfect to have a swim or go snorkeling. Their historical heritage include many Roman ruins including a theatre. Our ship will anchor on the island, so you can discover all of its beauty. For lunchtime, you can bring your own food or eat a delicious home-made Cretan meal on our ship.

After lunch, you can continue to enjoy and explore the rest of the island, take a swim in a secluded cove, or go snorkeling to see the marine wildlife such as the corals of the Mediterranean Sea. If you are feeling adventurous, you can also visit the little chapel of Agios Nikolaos, patron of seamen, located in the north of the island.
