Sailing Trip to Dia Island - Afternoon Trip

Sail with us to Dia Island and enjoy a complete experience at sea, ending with a magical sunset over the Cretan horizon.

Situated directly opposite the harbour, Dia Island is a protected island with crystal-clear waters, wild natural beauty, and a rich historical past. It was used by the Minoans as a natural harbour, with traces of ancient structures still found beneath the sea.

According to mythology, Dia is connected to Zeus, who is said to have created the island, giving it a legendary character that adds to its atmosphere.

Dia is home to the rare Cretan kri-kri goats, an endangered species unique to the island, along with other wildlife such as birds and hawks. On the journey, you may encounter dolphins or sea turtles, while flying fish are a common and exciting sight along the way.

After arriving, we anchor in a beautiful bay where drinks are served. You will have time to swim, relax, and enjoy a range of activities including snorkeling, stand-up paddle boarding, basic fishing, and inflatables.

Once the activities are finished, a freshly prepared lunch is served on board, completing the experience in a relaxed and enjoyable way.

As we begin our journey back, the highlight of the trip unfolds. The sky fills with warm colours as the sun slowly sinks into the sea, creating a truly magical and unforgettable moment.

This is more than just a trip — it’s a moment that becomes a lasting memory, as the sun slowly sinks into the sea and the entire sky fills with colour. A magical experience you’ll remember long after you leave Crete.
