Chania boat and snorkelling cruise in Menies

4.5/5
21 reviews

The clear-cut waters surrounding Crete are home to a fascinating array of marine life – making it nothing short of snorkelling heaven. Sailing from Kolymbari, you'll soak up the views of the Chania coast before diving into the Mediterranean to see shoals of exotic fish, colourful coral and more.

If you've never tried snorkelling before, then this the ideal chance. Head to the dive centre and you'll be greeted by friendly guides who'll give you a quick intro to all the essentials. After that, it's into a boat to cruise by the secluded beaches of Menies and Spilies on route to one of Crete's premier dive spots.

Plunge into the warm waters of the Med and you'll soon be exploring the underwater kingdom. And with crystal clear water, you won't miss out on a thing. Dry off in the sunshine and catch some rays on the way back to shore. And for complete flexibility, you can choose between a morning or an afternoon trip.

    Just the right amount of time at 4hours of which just over half is snorkelling. Good for non-snorkellers as boat trip interesting. It was a struggle to get onto beach without water shoes due to stones and slippery rocks. Good value for money. Plenty of space boat which had toilet facilities. Helpful crew (Smile Cruises). The length of trip meant we could be back for late lunch so not a strenuous day.

    The whole trip was very straightforward with transfer included. The trip there was quite long due to the number of stops but much quicker on the way back. The boat was comfortable and not overcrowded and both stops were beautiful. The crew were friendly and helpful. Overall a lovely day out and great value for money.

    The snorkelling was great. The guide was jolly and helpful but couldn’t hear his commentary during the boat trip so missed out on interesting facts and information

    Whole trip was amazing. Coach transfer was good/comfy. 4 hours out at sea, two stops including jumping from the roof of the boat into some crystal clear deep water. Boat was clean comfy and not too overcrowded. Would definitely recommend and would do the trip again without hesitation. Tip: take some drinks / snacks - there are some on the boat to buy but not very much!
