About this cruise

Five hours from Porto Carras with three swim stops, for a group that wants room to spread out. Leave at 10:00 or 16:00.

This is the trip for the group that never fits on one boat. Twelve people, three generations, somebody who does not swim and somebody who will not get out of the water.

We leave Porto Carras and stop at the Limanakia, Agia Kyriaki and the Spalathronisia islets. Staying in Kassandra? We can start from Paliouri instead and cross the gulf to Sithonia first. Between the shaded cockpit, the nets and the open deck there is a spot for everyone, and the one who gets seasick has the flattest boat we have.

Morning or afternoon, your call. The 990 € covers the catamaran for up to 10 people, and each extra guest is 90 €, up to 12.

Questions we get asked

Catamaran or sailing yacht?

Same marina, same stops, two different days. The catamaran is the one for space, a deck that stays flat and a group of up to 12. The sailing yacht is the one for actually sailing, and it costs less.

See the sailing yacht half day cruise

Someone in the group gets seasick. Will they manage?

Usually yes. Two hulls mean the boat does not lean and the motion is slower and wider. It is the reason most people book the catamaran instead of the sailing yacht.

Morning or afternoon?

Same stops, same price. Mornings are usually calmer, afternoons give you the light on the way back and dinner still ahead of you.

Is food included?

Water, soft drinks and light snacks are on board. A proper lunch is not, so bring what you want to eat. Alcohol and towels are not included either.

Can we start from Kassandra?

Yes, from Chrousso pier in Paliouri, at the south end of Kassandra, for 200 € more for the boat. From Paliouri we cross the gulf to Sithonia and the stops stay the same. Tell us which pier when you book.

What if we need to cancel?

A 30% deposit confirms the booking. More than 21 days before departure you pay nothing. Between 21 and 7 days we keep half the deposit. Within 7 days we keep the full deposit.
