Overview
Ready to swap Heraklion’s cafés for open sea in under an hour? Step aboard at Café Marina, grab a steaming Greek coffee—or a cold soft drink if that’s more your speed—and watch the city walls shrink behind the sails of our 45-foot Lagoon. With the fortress fading into blue, the skipper points the bow toward Dia Island, a rocky splash of myth said to be hurled here by Zeus himself. Sea spray kisses the deck, kids trail lines for fish, and you feel the hum of adventure kick in long before you reach the anchorage.
The moment we swing into Dia’s glass-clear bay, the scene flips from postcard to reality. Mask on, fins ready—why dream of turquoise when you can dive straight into it? If you’d rather stand than swim, grab a paddleboard and glide above darting fish. Prefer pure chill? Stretch out on the wide net, sip a local beer, and let the salt wind do its thing. Meanwhile the galley fires up: crisp salads, seafood orzo, orange-glazed chicken, mussels laced with ouzo, and a kid-friendly plate that disappears almost as fast as the sea turtles you might spot below. A homemade fruit tart finishes the feast, just in time for one last plunge—or a nap in the shade while the island’s rugged silhouette guards your dreams.
By early afternoon the sails fill again. Sun-warmed and salt-dried, you trace the wake back toward Heraklion, clutching fresh stories for tonight’s tavern talk: the first jump, the brightest fish, that perfect instant when boat, sea, and sky felt like one rush of freedom. Searching “Crete yacht” won’t ever feel the same—because you’ve already lived the search result. Book your spot now and claim your share of Aegean adventure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a shared daily cruise?
A shared daily cruise is a boating adventure where individuals or small groups join others aboard a single vessel for a day-long journey. Unlike private charters, participants share the boat, making it a cost-effective way to experience sailing and explore destinations.
What is included in the cruise price?
The cruise price generally includes the boat ride, professional crew, and often a selection of amenities such as meals, beverages, and sometimes snorkeling gear or paddle-boards. Exact inclusions can vary, so it’s important to check the details for your specific cruise.
Can dietary restrictions be accommodated?
Many cruises can accommodate dietary restrictions with advance notice. Be sure to inform the cruise operator of any dietary needs when you book.
What is the difference between shared and semi-private cruises?
Shared cruises typically have a higher number of passengers. These cruises are open to the public, and tickets are sold individually. The boat is shared among various individuals and groups who book independently.
Semi-private cruises limit the number of passengers more strictly than shared cruises. These cruises are shared among a few individuals or small groups, but the total number of guests is kept low to maintain a sense of exclusivity and comfort.
What time should I arrive at the dock?
For a smooth and timely departure, we recommend that all guests arrive at the dock at least 30 minutes prior to the scheduled departure time. This window allows you to check in, complete any necessary paperwork, and receive a briefing or instructions if required. Arriving early also helps mitigate any unforeseen delays and ensures that you can board comfortably and without rush.
