Beautiful Agia Pelagia Bay in Crete is a great place to explore by boat. This small group tour kicks off with hotel pickups and sets sail from Agia Pelagia Port for a three-hour tour on the water. Marvel at hidden caves, secluded beaches, and vibrant sea life as you navigate around the bay, led by a skilled skipper. Cool off with stops for swimming and snorkeling before returning to the port and being transferred back to your hotel.

I booked this experience twice during my stay, and both times it was cancelled less than 24hrs before. If it operationally fails to function it shouldn’t be advertised or guests should be given more notice as it’s impossible to book alternatives with that little notice.

Overall we had a great trip, just some things to know that you aren’t told of .. You have to swim from shore to your boat and so must be able to swim confidently in the sea. This unnerved our daughter (12) but she did manage it. Our skipper was very friendly, allowed our daughter to “drive the boat”, knew the local area and fish etc

Good experience & snorkeling spots were great. The staff at Sailingcrete/Eurodiving who operated this trip were mostly friendly - our captain could've been a bit more! Main problem we had was with transfer back to our hotel afterwards, given we were on the half day morning trip, & there was no one available to take us until 5pm (our trip finished at 2.30pm). If we'd have known in advance that this was the case, then we could've planned for food/drinks. Local taxis pricey & unavailable!

The trip was lovely. Not hurried. Only duffuculty was getting onto the boat via a paddleboard and then onto a jetty on your hands and knees. Not good for people with limited mobility. But beautiful scenery and very friendly watchful guide.

Leuke boot safari met een onwijs vriendelijke en zeer ervaren kapitein. Er had voor ons wel iets duidelijker vermeld mogen worden dat het wat meer een snorkel safari was. Op de dag dag wij hieraan deelnamen was de zee wild. Hierdoor liep alles net even anders maar veiligheid staat voorop. Hier is goed mee omgegaan. Waardevolle spullen konden in een speciale tas waardoor deze droog bleven. Ook dit was goed geregeld want alles op de boot wordt heel nat. Neem wel een flesje water mee voor onderweg.
