This six-and-a-half-hour cruise departs Souda Port each morning at 09:30 aboard a Lagoon 450F catamaran. The crew welcomes guests with fresh espresso, tea, and a breakfast bowl before setting sail along the Akrotiri peninsula coastline toward Marathi Bay.
Marathi Bay sits on the northern tip of the Akrotiri peninsula, facing the White Mountains. The bay is shallow, sandy, and sheltered from the northern winds that affect much of Crete's northern coast, making it reliably calm for swimming. Once anchored, guests can use the onboard inflatable water slide, sea scooter, water tubes, kayaks, and stand-up paddleboards. Snorkeling gear, swim jackets, and inflatables are also available on board.
At 12:30, a Cretan lunch is served on deck. The menu is designed by a certified nutritionist and prepared fresh using organic ingredients from local farms. It is served alongside unlimited local white wine, cold Greek beer, soft drinks, and water from the open bar, which runs throughout the full cruise. Vegetarian options are available on request.
The catamaran accommodates a maximum of 20 guests, keeping the setting semi-private. On-board amenities include premium sunbeds, shaded lounges, Wi-Fi, a marine audio system, and a freshwater outdoor shower. Hotel transfers are not included in the standard price but can be arranged separately on request. Note that from April 1–14 and September 1–October 31, departure times shift 30 minutes earlier than the standard schedule.
