Purjejaht Diasse

The trip was truly worth the price, I recommend taking it! The driver picked us up from our hotel, but a word of warning: I recommend confirming the pick-up point on the day of the trip, as there was some confusion and we ended up picking up from the wrong location (as stated in the email). The drive from our hotel to Heraklion port took about an hour. A group of 10 people boarded the yacht, plus the captain and his assistant – very nice people. We were given water at the beginning and were well-prepared for anyone who got seasick. Then, a one-hour cruise to Dia Island, where we had time to swim in the lagoon for about three hours. Snorkeling equipment was provided, and a stand-up paddleboard was available for those interested. In the meantime, dinner was served, which the captain himself prepared on board – pasta in tomato sauce with shrimp, Greek salad, and tzatziki – it was very tasty. We had access to unlimited drinks (white wine, plus Coke, Fanta, lemonade, and water). I recommend taking the afternoon tour for the chance to watch a beautiful sunset. We returned to the hotel between 9 and 10 PM – this is important, as we didn`t make it in time for dinner, so it`s worth preparing something just in case. Overall, the island, the lagoon, and the cruise were wonderful, and I definitely recommend taking advantage of it!

You sail along and forget about everything else, losing yourself in the sound of the waves and the roar of the wind. Swimming, diving, and viewing the island and the remnants of antiquity lying on the seabed remain in your memory forever, reminding you how ancient humanity is and the artistry and level of development people displayed when gazing at the remains at the bottom. The fish and other organisms coexisting together are also an unforgettable sight. Captain Domitrios and Silia are a well-coordinated crew: honest, talkative, smiling, and kind. It`s clear they know their way around the world, as well as their cooking, as the dinner was delicious. I highly recommend it.
