BOAT TRIPS AND PRIVATE BOAT HIRE

Crete is an incredibly beautiful and diverse island to explore and that is particularly true when you continue your Cretan adventure offshore, looking back to the most majestic of all the Greek islands. With a private boat rental you can meander along the rugged coastline discovering hidden coves, quiet beaches, and sea caves that are only accessible by boat, whilst taking lush breaks to swim and snorkel in the pristine waters. 

Whether you’re seeking a serene day on the water with an experienced local skipper giving you a guided tour of secret places, or if you want to make your own odyssey and be your own captain, the choice is yours. Whatever you decide, it will be a magical experience, and every view will be a picture postcard.  In addition, there is a choice of day cruises available to different destinations including the incomparable Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa Island, and the island of Santorini.

WATER SPORTS AND FISHING TRIPS

 Crete offers a variety of unique water-based activities that promise both exciting and unforgettable memories. From trying your hand at windsurfing on the island’s breezy shores, to a fun day at an excellent water park, there is something to suit every taste and thrill level. For those who prefer a slower pace, paddle boarding, pedalo, and kayaking are fantastic ways to immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of the coastline and sea, providing opportunities to glide over crystal-clear waters and explore at your own rhythm.  Fishing enthusiasts can go out with a knowledgeable local fisherman to fish with rod or nets, then cook on the boat, and finally feast on, and savour your delicious catch. Meanwhile, families and groups can enjoy inflatable rides, bouncing across the waves and soaking up the sunshine together, making for a hilarious and laughter-filled day on the water.

EXCURSIONS

For those guests who do not want to rent a car but who would still like to see some of Crete’s superb countryside and archaeological sites, a guided excursion is the perfect solution. Even for those of you who have cars an occasional excursion can be a relaxing alternative, particularly for the driver who is usually too busy concentrating on the winding Cretan roads to see any of the wonderful scenery! Some excursions also offer the opportunity to see places that are only accessible by either boat, ferry, or on foot. We can recommend an excursion provider who only uses licensed guides who are very knowledgeable and will therefore enhance your experience. They only use luxury coaches which are fully air-conditioned, and have a toilet onboard. 

HORSE RIDING

Horse riding and daily trekking are a lovely change of pace. Guests with a hire car can drive themselves to the riding stables or, for a small fee,  our horse riding provider can arrange a mini-bus transfer for guests without a car. Because of the heat there are early morning or evening rides, as well as a nature walk for beginners, medium and advanced rides, and a beach ride.
