Set sail from Kavonisi Kissamos Port and embark on a unique 8-hour journey that intertwines the serene beauty of untouched nature with the timeless allure of Crete’s historic heart.

Your adventure begins at Menies, a secluded pebble beach nestled at Cape Spatha’s edge. Here, the ruins of the ancient city of Diktinna and the sacred temple of Vritomartis—the Cretan Artemis—whisper stories of forgotten times. Swim in deep, calm waters, breathe in the peaceful atmosphere, and reconnect with the soul of the island.

Next, glide toward Theodorou Island, a pristine natural sanctuary where no footsteps touch the land, but vibrant marine life dances beneath the surface. Drift in these sacred waters as the rare Kri-Kri goat gazes silently from the cliffs—a rare and humbling encounter.

Then, discover Lazaretta Islet, steeped in Venetian history and quiet holiness. Swim in crystalline waters, bask under the sun, and explore ruins that once offered refuge to lepers, bearing silent tales of resilience and hope.

Finally, arrive at Chania Old Port, where the Venetian lighthouse stands guard over cobbled streets and vibrant harbors. Lose yourself in the charm of this cosmopolitan gem, where every stone hums with history.

But the magic continues—exclusive secret beaches await, accessible only by boat. Untouched, private, and ethereal, these coves offer moments of pure solitude, just you, the sea, and the sky.

Your comfort is assured onboard with snorkeling equipment, a stereo system, shadow awning, ice cooler, bow sunbed, freshwater shower, swimming ladder, plus soft drinks, water, and snacks to keep you refreshed throughout your voyage.

Discover Crete’s soul — book your private 8-hour Menies & Chania cruise today and sail into timeless serenity and vibrant culture.
