From Heraklion’s Venetian harbor, you sail about an hour to Dia Island aboard a small yacht with an experienced crew. Swim, snorkel, paddleboard, and enjoy Greek food, wine, and fruit. Ernesto and George are among the crew members praised for friendly service and helpful local stories.

“Despite the 40 min delay by transit authority that required us to divvy out passengers into several boats, they added 30 min on the end. The boat ride was refreshing and had a nice ship on the catamaran prepared by the skipper, wonderful views, about 30 min of swimming, snorkeling. The snorkeling equipment wasnt great and not much underwater sealife , so dont plan on itlooking like the Caribbean. The captain, Station was fun and full of stories”
