Cast off on a half-day catamaran cruise, gliding over to Dia Island in Crete. As you sail, you can tuck into traditional Cretan treats. Once you arrive at the island, you can take your pick from the watersports on offer – try paddle-boarding, snorkelling, or just go for a swim. After working up an appetite, you'll have an onboard Mediterranean feast prepared by an award-winning chef. For this experience, you can choose whether to sail in the morning or evening, and if you want to opt for a little extra luxury with a private cruise.

The catamaran was very clean , the staff were lovely , my family enjoyed the water paddle boarding and snorkelling, there was no fishing , except eating the fish , but had a great day a little bit over priced but still worth a great day out

The crew were very good and kind and friendly. We had a lovely time. The food was delicious. They were hot on the health and safety of the passengers

The day was excellent, we couldn't have asked for anything better, the crew were very knowledgeable and very polite, the food was outstanding, the day was perfect, we would certainly recommend the trip. Thank you all so much for a perfect day.

Friendly informative crew. Plenty of refreshments. We felt safe. The food was good, although it did lack texture. Because of the purée why hadn’t anyone thought to include some wonderful Greek bread or even pitta bread. That would have elevated the dish ti another level.

the transfer there was terrible. our pickup point was at a hotel 30 minute walk away!!!! the actual catamaran itself was lovely though and the staff onboard were great, they were very welcoming and the food was delicious. there isn’t much to do on the island, just snorkelling or paddle boarding, the beach on the island must be maybe 5 metres long?! the actual boat trip is beautiful, just really disappointed about the transfer there…

Probably the best boat trip we have been on in Europe. Only 13 of us on the trip Excellent service from start to finish . Couldn’t fault it. Well worth the money.
