At the Marine Port of Rethymno (Sofokli Venizelou 24, Rethymno 741 00)
Had a great time with two young children! Perfect amount of time cruising along the coast and swimming. Loved jumping off the boat and the children were really happy to be able to drive the boat using the big wooden wheel! Cafe and toilets on board which was really convenient.
Not much to see in three hours. A boat trip with no commentary. A section of cliff we could have admired by exploring the coastline ourselves. A swim that was almost canceled due to excessive wind. Completely pointless.
Perfect trip , we had a four year old with us thoroughly enjoyed the experience , staff were great , swim stop was excellent lots of passengers in sea , including all the children life jackets provided , captain allowed the kids to have a go at sounding the horn and steering the wheel highly recommend very reasonable price
