Experience the magic of a Greek sunset at sea on an unforgettable 2.5-hour journey: sail past the limestone shelves that bleach the seabed into impossible turquoise, visit Diaporos island and the coves of Vourvourou bay, and enjoy complimentary wine and charcuterie as the sky deepens into color while soft jazz plays.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE ROUTE

Blue lagoon to a secret sunset cove

The outing moves from Marina Lagonisiou to a vivid blue lagoon whose limestone seabed brightens the water, then onward to a quieter, secret sunset stop where guests can swim and sip a glass of wine as daylight wanes.

THE SENSES

Complimentary refreshments and soft jazz

Onboard you’ll find complimentary wine, charcuterie and a fruit assortment served during the cruise — small luxuries that frame the evening as music and the sea set the tone.

THE VIEW

Turquoise waters and island silhouettes

Watch light shift over Diaporos island and the coves of Vourvourou bay and Ormos Panagias, where the interplay of limestone seabed and late light turns the water an almost surreal turquoise.

What the day feels like

What the evening feels like

Over roughly two and a half hours you’ll leave Marina Lagonisiou, glide to a bright blue lagoon, pause for swimming and refreshments at a secret sunset spot, then position to watch the actual sunset from chosen vantage points on the water — all accompanied at times by soft jazz and simple, included fare.
