Details
Enjoy our pirate boat trip around Rethymno at sunset and admire the city as you have never seen it before! From the Marine Port of Rethymno, we will first sail past La Fortezza, which is a historic fortress build by the Venetians in the 16th century. Little by little, you will see the colours of the sky change, and the sun will cover the sea surface with an orange and pink gradient. When it turns dark, we will return to our starting point, and you will have the opportunity to admire a breathtaking view of the illuminated port and town.

- Unique panorama on La Fortezza from the sea
- Sunset on board a vintage pirate ship
- View of the port and the town by night

This sunset pirate boat tour from Rethymno is a hit with both couples and families, with about 93% of reviewers giving it five stars. Guests consistently praise the "unforgettable experience" of watching the beautiful sunset over the sea and the city coastline. The friendly crew, who sometimes let children steer the ship, and the great value for money are also major highlights. While some found the benches hard or the diesel smell strong, the overall atmosphere is described as magical. This relaxing sail is a perfect way to end the day.
