Full-day private cruise to Menies and Hironissia

Ready to escape the crowds and sail straight into your own private sea story? Then hop aboard your luxurious Princess V55 yacht for a 7 hour cruise to Crete’s wild side—where secret beaches, ancient myths and underwater wonderlands are all part of the journey.

Your adventure starts from Kolymvari Marina where your experienced captain will set course for the unspoilt eastern coast of the Rodopou Peninsula Nature Reserve—a place so raw and beautiful it feels like you’ve discovered a secret the world forgot to tell you.

First stop: a glowing purple sea cave (yes, purple—it’s like snorkelling through a dream). Then it’s off to Hironisia Bay, a peaceful cove that’s basically nature’s version of a VIP lounge. Swim, snorkel, float on the inflatable island dock or just soak up the Cretan sun with a cold drink in hand. Zero crowds. Maximum bliss.

But the real showstopper? Menies Beach—home to the ancient city of Diktinna and the ruins of the temple of Vritomartis, daughter of Zeus and Minoan goddess of the wild. It’s the kind of place that makes history come alive (and your Instagram reel look epic).

Throughout the cruise you’ll be treated to a light Cretan meal—a savory platter, fresh fruit salad and your choice of wine, beers, soft drinks or water. Plus we’ve got snorkeling gear, paddle boards and a floating dock to keep the fun going.
