Message us to discuss a day cruise or the peaceful and spectacular sunset cruises from €600. Message us for our best prices and for any special cruises, two marriage proposals so far! Any youngsters on board? We like to get them sailing the boat! The record is just 5 years old! Blue lagoon is a very peaceful place to swim drink and eat, it is surrounded on 3 sides by high rocks so is very protected from the wind, you can see right to the bottom, it’s full of fish for snorkeling. People don’t want to leave! Here is a 5* review which describes where we sail, “Our family recently had the pleasure of embarking on a Friday sunset cruise with the remarkable skipper, Bryan. The entire experience was nothing short of magical, making it an unforgettable highlight of our trip to Crete. From the moment we set sail from Agios Nikolaos, we were treated to enlightening conversations with Bryan, whose knowledge and stories added a unique charm to the voyage. His impeccable taste in music, showcased through the built-in sound system and a Fender acoustic guitar on board, set a perfect ambiance for the evening. The carefully curated playlist resonated with everyone, enhancing the serene beauty of the setting sun. Our destination was a hidden lagoon, where the turquoise waters were simply breathtaking. Once anchored, we indulged in snorkeling and swimming, enjoying the clear water and picturesque surroundings. One of the standout aspects of the cruise was Bryan himself. His engaging personality and fascinating life stories made him a delightful companion. Don’t miss out on the chance to get to know this beautiful soul as his presence truly elevates the entire experience. In summary, our sunset cruise with Bryan was a splendid blend of natural beauty, engaging conversations, and delightful music. It’s an experience we highly recommend to anyone visiting Crete. Thank you, Bryan, for an unforgettable evening on the water!

Overall rating
From the moment we stepped onboard, everything felt seamless and welcoming. Captain Brian and his crew were amazing—professional, friendly, and full of energy. Within just a few hours, we felt less like guests and more like family. Over the course of six hours, they shared stories and even taught us the basics of sailing, which made the trip both fun and educational. The food was exceptional—fresh, flavorful, and prepared with ingredients picked straight from the garden. The scenery was breathtaking. The water was crystal clear, perfect for swimming and simply taking in the beauty around us. Every detail, from the atmosphere on board to the care the crew showed, made the experience unforgettable. To make the trip even memorable Bryan our captain played guitar for us while gracefully heading toward the sunset sipping bubblies.

I highly recommend the catamaran cruise with Bryan and Tina. Great atmosphere and time spent on the boat. Delicious food ❤️❤️❤️
This boat trip with Bryan and Toni was truly exceptional. Everything—from the smooth organization and the high quality of the catamaran to the thoughtfully chosen stops and delicious food—was top-notch. It was also very safe and enjoyable for our children (ages 5 to 9), which made the experience even more relaxing for us as parents. The entire trip felt personal, well-curated, and unforgettable. Highly recommended for families or anyone looking for a unique and memorable day on the water.
Ето превода на английски: --- The experience is fantastic! The boat is very comfortable and convenient. Brian and Nikos are exceptional hosts. A pleasant, relaxed atmosphere with music, good food, and amazing stories told by Brian. He knows the coastline and the winds extremely well, so the trip feels safe and enjoyable. He shares captivating insights about the geography, nature, history, and culture of the area. A high-quality experience with great company at a fair price.
Unforgettable Day on the Water with Brian’s Sailing Charter If you're anywhere near Elounda or Agios Nikolaos and want to experience the sea the right way, this is it. We set sail from a quiet little hotel harbor just outside Agios Nikolaos and spent the day aboard Brian’s beautifully maintained and remarkably stable catamaran. Brian, a British expat, his lovely wife, and their deckhand Niko made us feel like friends from the moment we stepped aboard. The sails were up the entire journey, and we glided effortlessly across the water under the Cretan sun. Brian is a fascinating and knowledgeable host—he answered every question we threw at him about the area with insight and humor. The highlight was our stop at the Blue Lagoon, a secluded spot where we swam in crystal-clear water, fed schools of little fish with bread and bananas, and soaked up the peace of the bay. Lunch was fresh and delicious: crisp salads, hearty sandwiches, and a steady flow of cold, crisp wine that seemed to magically refill itself every time we looked away. Everything was relaxed, effortless, and joyful—the way a sailing day should be. This wasn’t just a boat ride; it was a full experience, hosted with care and passion by people who clearly love what they do. I highly recommend making this a part of your Crete adventure. It was absolutely unforgettable.
We booked the trip as a birthday surprise. A large group, which of course posed a real challenge in terms of planning, organization and wishes. Bryan and Tony handled everything perfectly and were always on hand to answer any questions quickly and easily. We had a wonderful day on board! The guests were thrilled and it was an unforgettable experience, a perfect start to our vacation. Thanks to Bryan, Tony, Nikos and Michel
We had a fantastic time on this catamaran trip! Bryan was super friendly—even though he doesn’t speak French, he made us feel welcome. He even set sail despite the tricky wind, which made the experience all the more exciting. What made it really special was how involved he let us be with the sailing—it was fun, hands-on, and surprisingly educational! The lunch (a fresh salad and sandwich) was simple but tasty. Do keep in mind, this is a racing-style catamaran, so there’s no closed deck—expect a sporty, authentic sailing vibe rather than a luxury cruise. Overall, a great outing with good food. High value for money
Bryan and Toni are the loveliest hosts and couple. This is the best value and experience in Agios Nikoloas. The hospitality is unmatched and if you are a people person they are simply delightful. For those of you interested in boating or willing to partake in unique experiences, you may be offered a captains chair to sail the boat. For my group of 9 this was a truly fulfilling day. They raved about it for hours and simply adored Bryan and Toni! As a first time Click & Boat client, this is the type of hosting experience that would make me a customer for life. Also the food was delicious and the drinks were nice and cold! Thank you for everything and see you very soon again, Bryan!
Great day out. Fantastic food . Bought my son a birthday cake. Lovely touch.
Bryan welcomed my group with open arms and ice cold wine. He was incredibly interesting to speak to, happy to explain the surroundings and the ways of his beautiful catamaran. We had a fantastic day on the water, stopping twice to jump off, snorkel and swim. Lunch was fresh and light! A fantastic day all round.
It was a great and interesting sailing trip. Super special and rare former racing catamaran! Would definitely go again with Brian and his crew!
The absolute highlight of our vacation! As a family, we enjoyed an unforgettable day with Bryan on the catamaran. In addition to an exciting introduction to sailing, Bryan enthralled us with many interesting facts about Crete, the weather, and the island's history. He was a fantastic host – warm, knowledgeable, and palpably passionate about his work. His wife also welcomed us with open arms – and with the best pickled olives we've ever tasted. We can wholeheartedly recommend this tour to everyone!
Very pleasant moment, Bryan organized an outing for 20 people with two sailboats and we ate on his boat. Everything went very well
If I could, I would give much more than 5 stars. Bryan is an outstanding captain, with a very warm welcome, clear explanations, and an incredible cruise. I had very special requests that Bryan accepted with great investment. Indeed, I took advantage of the cruise to propose, and it was a success! Bryan adapted 100% to what I wanted. The weather conditions were not in our favor but Bryan and his expertise, his perfect knowledge of the sea, were able to chase away the clouds and capture the sun! A big thank you to Bryan for this moment that will have marked our lives forever. I highly recommend not to miss a moment on this unique catamaran. For my part, I will undoubtedly come back to relive an experience.
We were looking forward to spending a day on Bryan's catamaran and swimming in the Blue Lagoon. Everything went perfectly. The boat was very nice and comfortable for a group. The food and drinks were very good. And swimming in the Blue Lagoon with the fish was the most incredible part of the day. A magnificent day that my family and I will never forget.
We had a great day. Bryan adapted to our schedules, dietary requirements and desires. Thank you Bryan ? Only perfect ??
Great afternoon with Bryan. The meal provided was excellent. Thanks again

My wife and I have lived only on boats for over 30 years, I have sailed in the Mediterranean and other waters for 30 years. I worked as a computer professional winning a Emmy award for technology. Having won the Emmy, I retired early, and I worked on this catamaran as deckhand for three years, bought our first house, a house in Crete with views of the sea and mountains. I then started a company and bought this Catamaran that I had been working on (our fifth boat), to continue the previous commercial operation with myself as skipper and my wife as crew.
