The first catamaran in Heraklion that turns the sea into your playground!
Forget standard sailing tours. Step aboard the only catamaran cruise from Heraklion to Dia Island that comes equipped with underwater sea scooters and an inflatable water slide off the deck. Glide beneath the waves like a scuba pro, launch yourself into the Sea from the catamaran, snorkel in glass‑clear bays — then refuel with a chef‑crafted Mediterranean lunch and unlimited drinks from our open bar. We're the first and only catamaran on this coast offering these activities onboard.
What makes this cruise different from anything else in Crete:
Underwater sea scooter — explore Dia's coral and rock formations effortlessly, no diving experience needed
Inflatable water slide off the catamaran deck — kids and grown‑ups laugh just as loud
Snorkeling, SUP & kayak — all gear and instruction included
Chef-crafted Mediterranean meal
Unlimited open bar — wine, beer, soft drinks and water flowing all day
Premium spacious catamaran with sunbeds, shaded lounges and an expert crew
