Crete Chrissi Island yacht cruise with lunch and snorkeling. White-sand beaches, clear water, and easy transfers from Ierapetra.
“The contact beforehand was great. We were able to ask all our questions via WhatsApp. Unfortunately, we were informed via WhatsApp that the departure time was wrong, which meant we were almost late and we were called to say that they would not wait for us if we were even just a little late. Luckily, we were just on time. When we got there, we were on a rather small yacht where everything was very narrow, including the paths to the berth area, etc. There were a few too many people there for the size of the yacht. Since we arrived just in time, we were not given any instructions…”

Every kind of day out on the island, and the best of each.
