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.

This was a fantastic trip and the highlight of our holiday didn’t want the day to end

It was fantastic! It far outreached our expectations captain George was amazing thank you food was outstanding brilliant day highly recommend !!

We enjoyed the exclusivity of it being just 11 guests. The food was all lovely and prepared by the captain. There were many swim stops along the way, a bit too many for us but others swam a lot. It was quite a long day and expensive compared to similar cruises we've had on other islands. That could just be down to different expenses on different islands and the last one we had was 2 years ago. Would recommend it though.

Captain George and his team were amazing. A thoroughly fantastic day from start to finish. We stopped at multiple beautiful swim locations and enjoyed a wonderful freshly cooked lunch. We would highly recommend this excursion

Was led to believe that there would be a breakfast but was disappointed with half a croissant. The alcohol wasn’t very forthcoming. The lunch was delicious and the service was very good. Overall thoroughly enjoyed the day.

We loved the entire day. Food was fabulous, the boat beautiful and easy to get around, George the skipper was ace and we got to see the South of the island from the sea
