Review of Hersonissos sunset catamaran cruise with swimming, snacks, drinks, SUP, snorkeling, and golden-hour views from Crete.

“Chasing sunsets is always nice. However, doing so with a sea-view from catamaran is another level. It was a great experience, filled with fun, photos & laughter. Don’t hesitate to book any longer. It is worth it. Big thanks to the crew who made us feel light and amused the whole time. The sunset was indeed gorgeous, enhanced by emotional music, it was simply magical. Thank you for the experience!”

Sail from Heraklion to Dia Island for clear-water swimming, snorkeling, snacks, and a memorable sunset cruise.

“It was a great experience, a lovely way to be in the sea and enjoy a swim and some drinks. The sunset was AMAZING, and so was the appearance of a beautiful pink moon. At first, everyone was a bit shy, but after we all had a swim, we started chatting and we all had a great time, we met some lovely people, and Kosta and Alex, our crew, were really chatty and friendly guys. This was our favourite activity, thanks so much for a great experience!”

“Best sunset cruise ever ! Booked this sunset cruise for two birthdays and it was such an amazing experience. Pick up at hotel was smooth sailing.

Review of Heraklion’s Dia Island sunset catamaran cruise, with Prosecco, unlimited drinks, swimming, snorkeling, SUPs, and local food.

“Sergei and his crew were fantastic hosts from the second we met them at the port, until we left the boat. My wife and myself felt very welcome, comfortable and relaxed. The crew did not stop working to ensure that everyone had everything that they needed, constantly coming back to ask if people needed more drinks or something to eat etc. A fantastic experience from start to finish!”
