Private Cruise out of the Old Venetian harbour of Chania
Classic 40-foot sailing yacht. Full-day private cruise departing the Old Venetian Harbour (Akti Enoseos). The cruise makes two anchored stops for swimming and relaxation: first at the nearby island of Agia Theodori (protected Natura area) and second at the secluded Maherida beach with turquoise waters. Snacks (traditional Cretan dakos), seasonal fruit and drinks are provided during the cruise; lunch is included on the 7-hour (full-day) cruise. Snorkelling equipment, SUP, pool noodles and inflatable donuts are available for guests. Check-in and boarding at the harbour; return to the Old Venetian Harbour for disembarkation at the scheduled end time.
Tips from local experts:
- Meet at the quay on Akti Enoseos (Old Venetian Harbour, Chania) at the scheduled check-in time and look for the labelled classic sailing yachts; allow a few minutes to board and stow personal items.
- Bring reef-safe sunscreen, swimwear and a lightweight cover-up for the sea breeze; sea towels are available to rent onboard for day use (cash only) if you prefer not to bring one.
- For a quiet, romantic moment, be on deck when the yacht anchors at Maherida beach — lunch and drinks are served onboard during the full-day cruise and the anchorage is arranged for privacy and relaxation.
