- Sailing In Cretan and Aegean Sea - Sailing from the port of Heraklion to Dia island takes about 1 hour. While sailing you can enjoy the wind and stunning views of the vivid blue colors of the Cretan sea or sunbathe on the deck of the catamaran if the weather conditions allow so. And who knows you might even get to meet the dolphins… - Dia - The island of Dia is an uninhabited island 6 miles north of Heraklion with crystal waters, beautiful wild scenery and rich history. The legend says that it used to be a monster created by Zeus to destroy the Cretans but he turned it into a stone to save them eventually. In the bay of Saint George where we anchor there was an ancient Minoan port that got destroyed along with the Minoan Civilization and sometimes it is possible to find ancient ruins and artifacts in the bottom of the beach. Nowadays there is a beautiful christian church of Aegean architecture. The island is home to many wildlife species such as rabbits, kri-kri goats, hawks and more! - Sailing In Cretan and Aegean Sea - While sailing back you can relax after a day full of joy and great memories. If you have booked the afternoon cruise with the sunset, the stunning view of the sun setting in the horizon is definitely going to be worth it!

Sail with us to the exotic Dia Island on our large and comfortable Catamaran. Our journey begins at the Heraklion Old venetian port. After 1 hour of sailing, we arrive to Dia where we anchor in the first bay of the island. There you can enjoy the crystal waters and water activities such as snorkeling, fishing, paddle boarding and more. (Please request the equipment from the Crew) About 1 hour later our delicious menu is served and includes Greek salad and several appetizers, while the main course is shrimp pasta (we also offer vegetarian and gluten free versions of the menu upon request). You can also accompany your meal with the finest wine, beer, ice tea or soft drinks. Around 30 minutes later we sail to a different bay where you can enjoy the waters and our refreshing fruit salad. There you will have about 30-60 minutes before we sail back to Heraklion. *In case there is not enough time for a visit to the second bay there will be extra time in the first one.
