A dream of sunset by the sea

Indescribably beautiful. Especially the sunset. The deep blue of the sea hypnotizes. For me, it wasn't a snorkeling place. But that's not the important thing about this event either. It was truly unforgettable. Would love to experience it again tomorrow!
Great honeymoon activity option

My wife and I chose this trip as part of our honeymoon in Crete and we loved every second of it. The weather was perfect, the crew were superb and there were plenty of activities during the trip. Dia island offered some great bits of history, had plenty of small bays that offered shelter from the wind and waves and were great spots to have dinner, swim in the sea and look at the setting sun. Overall an excellent experience and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone!

Fantastic sailing trip to Dia with Captain Nikiforos! Would highly recommend and do this trip again in a heartbeat. The crew made us a great seafood dinner on the boat and were very personable. Not to mention, their sailing expertise is top notch and gave us a true sailing experience while other cruises were motoring.
