Beautiful boat trip to hidden beaches and caves
We booked the three-hour "Hidden Caves and Beaches" trip on the yacht and would recommend the excursion anytime. Markos and Viktoria were very nice, gave us exciting tips and advice, and prepared delicious sandwiches with grapes. The caves and beaches were more or less "hidden," but there were nice opportunities to swim and snorkel in the turquoise-blue, clear water. We really enjoyed the time. Everything also worked out very well with the shuttle from the hotel to the harbor and back.

Absolutely amazing sailing trip – highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had an absolutely wonderful day sailing with Tonia and George! From the very beginning, everything was perfect. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming, attentive and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire trip.The sailing itself was beautiful, and the swimming spots were absolutely fantastic. The water was crystal clear and every stop was a highlight of the day. We also really enjoyed the food on board – everything was delicious and made the experience even more special.What really stood out to us, though, was how warm and genuine Tonia and George were. They were always there when we needed something, but at the same time made the whole trip feel relaxed and effortless. You can tell that they genuinely care about their guests and want everyone to have an amazing time.This was definitely one of the highlights of our holiday in Crete. We enjoyed every single minute and would book this trip with Tonia and George again without hesitation.Thank you so much for an unforgettable day! ❤️⛵🌊

Diving experience
What an incredible experience with Horizon Diving Crete and Yiannis! 🤿💙For me, this was a very special dive — my first time underwater in 30 years. And to make it even more memorable, it was my daughter’s very first dive ever. I honestly couldn’t have wished for a better experience for either of us.Yiannis and Tomos were fantastic from start to finish. They made us both feel completely safe, relaxed and confident, taking the time to explain everything clearly and making sure we were comfortable throughout. Their calm and friendly approach made such a difference, especially with two very different levels of experience.Seeing my daughter experience her first dive while I rediscovered something I hadn’t done in three decades was genuinely unforgettable. It was one of those experiences we’ll both be talking about for a very long time.A huge thank you to Yiannis, Tomos and Horizon Diving Crete for making such a special day even more memorable. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a professional, friendly and personal diving experience in Crete. 🌊🐠We’ll definitely be back! ❤️

Unbelievable day!
We had such an amazing time onboard with Ilias and Nikki. The sailing trip was unbelievable, from start to finish. We booked a private 4 1/2 hour afternoon trip and were welcomed warmly onboard. The boat was spacious and felt very safe for us and our children. Drinks were available throughout the trip.After sailing over to Dia, we jumped and swam in the sea, snorkelled and tried some fishing. We could paddle board and snorkel, with masks and flippers provided.We had an excellent lunch prepared onboard which was very tasty and fresh.We had time for some more swimming and fun after lunch, and then set sail back to Heraklion during sunset which was magical.Ilias and Nikki were incredibly knowledgeable and were lovely hosts, to both us and our children, both clearly enjoying their jobs onboard. They were amazing to spend time with even letting our kids have a go at steering the yacht, which will be a memory they treasure forever.Thanks once again for an amazing experience!

Lovely private half day trip to Dia
The 4 of us went on a private half day trip in the morning (aprox. 09:30 -14:00 hrs).We met Denis and Elias, the crew, at the port of Heraklion.Travel time to the island took about 1hr each way. The island itself is uninhabited and a protected national park area.We got to a nice little bay where we stayed for 2/2.5 hrs. Seems this is the main hotspot for sailing trips as there were many other boats there, but it is full season in mid August. Here you can snorkel around in its crystal clear waters, paddle-board (SUP) or a quick visit to the island (little church, fisherman’s hut).The crew prepared a plentiful and delicious snack for us, which we ha pre-ordered separately (greek salad, sandwiches and an enormous bowl of fresh sliced fruit).Kids had a go at fishing and then a last splash in the sea before making our way back.We didn’t do much sailing as the wind was not in favour, but can’t do much about that.The staff were extremely courteous and friendly for the whole trip and pampered after us throughout the whole trip! Thankyou Denis and Elias!!

Writing this review on the sunbed day after the trip reflecting. Magda arranged prompt on time pick up from our hotel really nice transport called to to check we were in the transport. Got greeted at the port with a hug and welcome infectious smile. The sailing boat was pristine clean and luxurious. Captain nickos and first mate helen were so professional welcoming and catered for our every need advised of safety and couldnt do enough for us. Felt so safe in their hands. Drinks were served and sailing away to dia island, anchored up enjoyed a swim in the Crystal clear water snorkels and floats provided. Then the most amazing banquet was served crispy chicken spaghetti pesto/tatziki salad breads followed by a beautiful anniversary cake in the most beautiful setting and senary you could imagine. The captain popped a bottle of prossecco for us. Fed some fish followed by watching the sunset on the sea. The hospitailty was spot on and the best boat trip we have ever been on they made us feel like celebrities. 100% will always do these sort if trips again. Not 1 thing i could even try to fault. Most magical day and memory on holiday we could have had. Thank you so much

Great sailing experience
Wonderful trip to the island. Marissa and Niko were amazing to watch set sails and sail the boat. Food was very good. Only slight negatives were too many boat's in the small bay and not many fish. Suggestion: put a different color small flag near the ladder to help swimmers without glasses identify which of the several boats anchored in the bay is the one they are on.
