Enjoy a relaxing boat trip from the harbor of Elounda. This experience combines swimming, sunshine, and local food in one enjoyable day.
First, we board the boat and sail toward Kolokytha Bay. This quiet beach is famous for its clear blue water and natural beauty. Once we arrive, we make our first swimming stop. You can either dive directly from the boat or go ashore and relax on the beach.
While you swim and sunbathe, the crew prepares a fresh BBQ lunch on board. The menu includes grilled pork chop*, Greek salad, feta cheese, fresh bread, seasonal fruit, and a glass of wine or a soft drink. In addition, a vegetarian option is available upon request.
After lunch, we slowly cruise past the famous island of Spinalonga. From the sea, you can admire the impressive fortress and take beautiful photos. At the same time, you can enjoy the calm atmosphere and coastal views.
Next, we stop for a second swim in the open sea, between Spinalonga and the village of Plaka. Here, you will have about 40 minutes to swim in the deep blue water. Meanwhile, the peaceful surroundings make the experience even more special.
Finally, in the early afternoon, we return to the port of Elounda. As the trip comes to an end, you leave with wonderful memories of the Cretan sea.
Overall, this boat excursion is perfect for travelers who want a relaxed day with swimming, tasty food, and beautiful views.
