About the experience
Set Sail to Dia Island – A Hidden Paradise in Crete
Embark on an exclusive sailing experience aboard the largest and most luxurious catamaran in Crete.
Departing from Heraklion’s historic marina, your adventure begins as we glide past the majestic Koules Fortress, an emblem of Crete’s Venetian past. As the sails catch the wind, immerse yourself in the serenity of the Aegean Sea, while our crew shares the fascinating mythology of Dia Island, believed to have been shaped by Zeus himself.
After an hour of sailing, we anchor in the untouched Saint George Bay, where you can dive into crystal-clear waters and explore the marine life with snorkeling gear. Feeling adventurous? Try stand-up paddleboarding or cast a line for some relaxed fishing. (For safety reasons, paddleboarding may not be available in strong winds.)
As you unwind on deck, our crew will serve a sumptuous Mediterranean meal, prepared with fresh local ingredients:
- Greek & Green Salad – A refreshing mix of crisp vegetables and classic Cretan flavors
- Traditional Cretan Appetizers – An assortment of locally inspired delicacies
- Mushroom & Truffle Risotto – A rich, aromatic dish (gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options available)
- Shrimp Linguine – A seafood lover’s delight, cooked to perfection
- Fresh Fruit Platter – A medley of tropical and local seasonal fruits to end on a sweet note
- Pair your meal with fine wine, beer, iced tea, or soft drinks !
Whether you seek adventure, relaxation, or a culinary journey, our luxury catamaran cruise offers the perfect blend of nature, history, and indulgence. Book your Dia Island sailing experience today and create unforgettable memories on the waters of Crete!
