About this tour

Ever dreamed of sailing into a postcard no one else has found yet? This 6-hour private yacht adventure from Kolymvari Port takes you off the grid and into the serene beauty of Menies Beach and Chironisia Bay—two of Crete’s most secluded coastal gems.

🚤 First stop: Menies Beach—an untouched bay only accessible by boat, where emerald waters meet ancient ruins and pure tranquility. No roads, no crowds, no noise—just the soft lapping of the sea and your paddleboard gliding through crystal clear bliss. Snorkel, sunbathe, explore… or just float and forget time exists.

🏝️ Next up: Chironisia Bay, a dramatic wonderland of wild cliffs, hidden sea caves, and rock formations that look like nature’s own art gallery. If Crete had a secret hideout, this would be it.

🍴 And while you’re out living the dream, the kitchen is at work. Think fresh local cheese, Greek salad, perfectly cooked fish, and a fruity dessert finale—all served onboard, with your choice of wine, beer, soft drink, or water. Every bite tastes better with a sea view.

🎯 The best part? It’s all tailored for you. Want more snorkeling time? Prefer to drift slowly under the sun? This cruise moves at your pace.

🧺 What’s Included

    An exceptional captain! Très discret tout au long de la cruise, il veillait à ce qu’il ne nous manque rien. Bateau propre, nourriture délicieux…une expérience parfaite du début à la fin !!
