The Skiathos coast is full of gorgeous towns and secluded swimming spots that are best accessed by boat. Sit back, relax and let a seasoned skipper sail you some of the best bits aboard this exclusive cruise that comes complete with a light lunch and wine. And with maximum groups of just 16 on board, you've plenty of space to soak up some sun.

Climb aboard at Skiathos port, and you'll be warmly welcomed by the crew. As you enjoy a mid-morning snack with complimentary coffee and tea, your captain will plot a course for some of the best swim spots and beaches in the area. And after working up a sweat with some serious tanning time on deck, the bluer-than-blue seas will beckon you in.

There'll be a light lunch served with a glass or two of local wine before more swimming and beach relaxing awaits off the remote islets of Arkas, and Tsouggria. This day-long excursion is filled with beautiful views, landscapes, and incredibly Instagrammable locations.

Just book it. If you’re looking for a sailing trip and a relaxing, intimate experience where you get to relax on a beautiful sailing ship with the wonderful Maria and captain exploring multiple beaches then this is a perfect trip. Plenty of snacks, drinks and a hearty Greek lunch. I couldn’t fault it. Book it.

We were not picked up to enjoy what was meant to be the highlight of our honeymoon. After waiting 45 minutes, we contacted TUI customer services and 2 hours later were told it was an error by the operator and we could book another day. We asked for Monday and were told that should be fine and we would receive tickets. Later a message was left on our app saying it was fully booked on Monday so a refund was being processed. Spoilt our honeymoon!!

Me and my fiance went on the sailing cruise around 1 week ago, the staff. Giorgios and Eleni were so lovely and available to help with anything we needed. The captain asked us what we all wanted to do at the start of the day and made us feel safe and secure the full time. The meal included was unreal. (safe to say he should be a chef), would 100% recommend this to anyone as i would personally say this was one of the best days of our holiday.

Fabulous trip, well worth the extra cost to have a small, quiet boat with few people (in our case 11 inc us). Lots of swimming opportunities in crystal clear sea, and plenty of time to swim to the little beaches and back to the boat. A very leisurely day, nothing rushed, so relaxing. Gorgeous lunch, pastries and fruit also included morning and afternoon. Some alcholic drinks too, inc prosecco before heading back to port. Very welcoming, friendly crew. Left 9.30, back at 5. A perfect day!
