What makes it 90% Couple-Friendly: Private or semi-private cruises, sunset Prosecco, deck loungers and wedding extras create a strong romantic setting; only moderate cost and full weather dependence keep it shy of perfect.
Why 3-4 hours visit duration is ideal for couple trip: A 3-4 hour cruise fits a sunset journey and includes time for swimming and lounging without rushing.
Semi-Private Sunset Cruise to Dia Island:
Sip Prosecco and nibble snacks as you watch the sun set. Swim in clear bays at Dia and relax on the deck.
Tip: Arrive 15 minutes early to choose a shaded spot. Bring a light jacket for evening breeze.
Private Half-Day Catamaran Cruise:
Explore secluded coves together, snorkel among fish, paddle SUP boards, and lounge on the trampolines.
Tip: Request morning departure to avoid midday heat and enjoy calmer seas.
Romantic Proposal or Wedding Package:
Customize a deck setup with flowers, champagne, photographer, and optional fireworks for a memorable moment.
Tip: Confirm your favorite song in advance for a surprise soundtrack during the proposal.

This trip fulfilled all my expectations. A friendly crew, comfortable boat, tasty lunch, and an amazing swim in the Mediterranean. Would do again on my next visit to Crete.

Amazing day visiting Balos and adjacent island. Everything was fantastic with Dimitri as the host, Jess as chef and Yani as captain. The boat is very comfortable and we stopped at perfect locations. Also prepared wonderful food. The service was outstanding. If you are planning a boat trip in Crete this is the excursion you want to take.

Superb. Booked a private day trip to Dia island. Crewed by Spiros, Costas and Costas. Great day, plenty of drink supplied and a lovely lunch. Nothing too much trouble for the crew. Plenty of inflatables and a couple of paddle boards for the kids. It’s nice to have the cabins available if kids need a nap, but the boat is big with plenty of lounging options in and out of shade. Sea around Dia is...
