About this cruise

Three hours from Latoura Marina: Diaporos, the Blue Lagoon and Lagonisi, with the sun going down on the way home.

Three hours, three places, and the light doing most of the work. We leave Latoura Marina at 18:00 and sail across to Diaporos, the island that closes the bay of Vourvourou.

We anchor in the Blue Lagoon, the channel between the island and the islets, for a swim. On the way back we stop at Lagonisi, where the water is shallow enough to stand in. Look east from there and Mount Athos is sitting on the horizon.

Three hours, the whole boat for up to 8 people, three more at 50 € each. Good for a couple, at 420 € for two, and better for a family that does not want a whole day at sea.
