About the experience

A journey of relaxation and natural charm

Set sail for a peaceful and scenic evening aboard a private boat and discover the coastline of Agios Nikolaos as the sun sets over Mirabello Bay. This 2-hour cruise (19:00–21:00) is the perfect short escape to unwind, enjoy the sea breeze, and witness one of the most beautiful sunsets in Crete.

Departing from the Marina of Agios Nikolaos, your skipper will guide you gently along the coast, passing charming coves, cliffs, and calm waters glowing with the evening light. You’ll cruise at a relaxed pace, soaking in the colors of the sky as they shift from golden to deep orange and pink.

Whether you're sipping a drink, listening to music, or simply enjoying the silence of the sea, the atmosphere is serene and timeless. This tour is ideal for couples seeking a romantic moment, families wanting to end the day peacefully, or small groups looking for a unique and private sunset experience.

Bring your own drinks and snacks or request a light aperitif onboard to make the moment even more special. No rush, no noise — just the sound of the waves and the beauty of nature.

He is a complete connoisseur of Crete who showed us some sumptuous and breathtaking places. I recommend Philip 100 times over to anyone who wants to spend quality time on a boat!

    An unforgettable boat trip with Skipper Phil! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our day with Skipper Phil was absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, he was professional, kind, and completely reliable. He took us to stunning bays and hidden spots, all while sharing fascinating stories about Cretan history – with so much passion and knowledge. There were plenty of drinks and delicious, thoughtfully prepared food on board. Everything was done with great care and a true sense of hospitality. Phil is not only an experienced skipper, but also a funny and warm-hearted host who made us feel welcome from the first moment.

    A fantastic day on the water with Philip! We had an unforgettable day thanks to Philip and his beautiful boat. The pick-up from the Daios Cove Resort and return went incredibly smoothly – super easy and well-organized. The boat itself was spotless and in perfect order. Everything we needed was on board: diving equipment, three seabobs with extra batteries, all kinds of goggles… everything was taken care of! There was also an abundance of snacks, fresh fruit, and delicious local delicacies. The fridge was stocked with refreshing drinks – truly fantastic. Even the toilet on board was exceptionally clean, which is rarely said of a boat toilet. Furthermore, Filip told us so many interesting facts about the history of the area along the way, and he took us to breathtakingly beautiful spots that we would never have found otherwise. In short: it was a fantastic day on the water. Philip is professional, friendly, and knows exactly how to pamper his guests. We 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a carefree and unique experience at sea. Thanks, Philip!

    Perfect day!! My family all agreed that it was the highlight of our 2 week trip. Philip went above and beyond to make our boat day memorable and fun. Immaculate boat (very clean!), fun sea bobs and snorkeling gear, most beautiful hidden spots to swim, delicious snacks and stocked fridge full of beer, sodas, wine. Highly recommend!!

    Philip is a kind, knowledgeable, and thoughtful skipper whose generosity is truly unmatched. We had an unforgettable afternoon exploring the coast of Crete near Spinalonga, with Philip sharing fascinating facts and insights about the island throughout the journey. Book this tour without hesitation.

    We are thrilled with the tour, the boat and of course Philip. All in all, we spent a relaxing time together with wonderful moments in the remote bays of Agios Nikolaus. It was also absolutely fantastic of Philip that he drove us everywhere so relaxedly, we felt very comfortable with him. Definitely highly recommended and we will book him again for the next Crete water tour. Thank you for the lovely day ?

    We had a perfect boat day with Philip yesterday. He was so welcoming, easy-going and funny, making us feel right at home. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, and took us to 6 picture perfect spots throughout the day, where we did some incredible snorkeling in the crystal clear waters. The boat is in great condition, and a wide array of drinks, snacks and snorkeling equipment was all provided. You can tell that Philip really enjoys what he does and strives to make each charter a memorable one for his guests. We had such a lovely time that we didn’t want the day to end. Would 100% go back, and would 100% recommend booking this!

    Our family had such an amazing day with Philip! He was so friendly and helpful and despite windy conditions he found us several secluded and protected spots to swim and snorkel. He took us into Plaka and recommended a lovely spot for lunch before another swim. I highly recommend Philip to anyone looking for a wonderful day on the sea!

    A truely fantastic day! We have 3 boat trips a year, but this was really one which we will remember. Philip was excellent from the beginning - very quick to respond and really helpful. On the day, from start to finish, Philip was so attentive, knowledgeable and kind + encouraging to our two children on board, who, like us, adored his excellently maintained boat. Don't think twice about booking this trip - you won't regret it! Thank you for a superb trip, Philip! ?

    We had a fabulous time on the boat with Philip, he is a very knowledgeable person & a great Captain. I drove the boat alone with his on hand expertise. We visited various stops around the bay which we wouldn't have seen if we didn't go on the trip. We even stopped at a privae beach for a swim stop. I 100% recommend this self drive experience. Thank you so much!

    I can not thank Phillip enough for such a wonderful day. I have just finished training for my Day Skipper in the UK and gained my ICC, therefore to be able to go out and get used to Greek/Med waters while knowing you have a qualified skipper at hand was fantastic. Phillip was helpful, insight and offered perfect guidance. So much so we are considering another trip out with him before our return home. I can not recommend him enough, ?
