What you can expect

  • Looking for an evening at sea near Chania where everything is taken care of? Transfer is included for guests staying between Georgioupoli and Chania: we pick you up at your hotel or at a convenient point nearby and bring you to Souda Port, where our spacious catamaran departs at 17:00. Your exact pickup place and time depend on where you're staying, and our office will send them to you in advance.

    Step aboard with a welcome glass of prosecco and relax on a sunbed or in the shaded lounge as we sail across Souda Bay, with the White Mountains turning gold behind the coast. Then drop anchor in Marathi Bay on the Akrotiri peninsula: shallow, sheltered from the wind and turquoise over a sandy seabed. In the late afternoon the bay is calm, warm and quiet.

    Jump in for an evening swim, glide underwater with a sea scooter, paddle on a SUP board or snorkel with high-quality gear. Prefer to take it easy? Float on a noodle or relax on our iconic pink flamingo. Fishing gear and a box of toys for kids are available on request.

    Sunset bites

    Our own catering has been awarded a Gold Medal at the Pan-Cretan Traditional Competition and the Golden Plate for Best Catering & Event Planner of the Year. The sunset bites, created by Greek chef Lefteris Soultatos and prepared in our catering kitchen, include a cheese platter, sushi and a seasonal fruit platter. Children get chicken bao buns instead of sushi. This is a light selection, not a full meal, and the menu may change slightly depending on the season. Need a gluten-free or vegetarian option? Please inform our office at least 2 days before your cruise.

    The open bar runs all evening at no extra cost: Greek white and rosé wine, Greek beer, soft drinks, water, espresso and detox water.

    Sail back to Souda in the golden hour, arriving around 20:30, and relax on the transfer back. Sunset time changes during the season: from late summer the sun sets during the sail back, and in early summer shortly after we return to port.

    One cruise, one winner: could it be you?
