Unforgettable Day at Sea with Cyma Sails Catarina” - We had the most incredible experience aboard the Cyma Sails Catarina. From the moment we stepped on board, we were blown away by the crew’s attentiveness—every detail was thought of, and their warmth and care made us feel like honored guests. The Greek hospitality was unmatched—genuine, gracious, and effortlessly welcoming. The boat itself was spotless—immaculately maintained and sparkling clean from bow to stern. Even the bathrooms were impressively nice: modern, spacious, and exceptionally clean, which made the experience feel even more luxurious and comfortable. The food was a true highlight. Every dish was fresh, vibrant, and beautifully prepared, showcasing the best of Greek flavors. The sea bass, in particular, was outstanding—the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly cooked, tender, and not dry at all—it melted in my mouth. From crisp salads and grilled seafood to decadent desserts, everything was served with care and attention to detail. This was hands-down one of the most memorable experiences of our trip. If you’re looking for relaxation, beauty, and top-tier service, Cyma Sails Catarina is it. Highly, highly recommend!

The food was divine. And the day goes down as one to remember. We didn't want to depart. Worth every penny. Highly recommend.

Amazing catamaran trip!! - Absolutely amazing trip with 5 star treatment. From the time of collection from our hotel to being dropped off. George and Matthias (Matthew) were amazing hosts and looked after us very well. They were informative, pleasant and very helpful. The catamaran was sheer luxury and a great size. It was very clean and modern. There were only 12 of us aboard which made it very comfortable indeed. Once at Dia island you have the chance to snorkel, paddleboard,swim or just sunbathe. We were the given an absolutely amazing lunch which was enjoyed by all. We were celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary. After lunch we were presented with a heart shaped red cake acknowledging our anniversary. This was a wonderful touch and made our day. Thank you so much Cyma sails we thoroughly enjoyed this trip.

Amazing! - Everything was beautiful! The catamaran is super large and the food is inexplicable. Skippers do an amazing job. Here you will not eat a simple BBQ. Everything is in the delicacy of the dish for dessert. We'll definitely be back! I recommend 1000%

The best experience - Amazing morning with my family. The most helpful staff and beautiful boat. We went on the catamaran morning cruise with the lunch and I can’t speak highly enough of the whole set up. The staff are friendly, knowledgable and very good at their job. The food was fresh and cooked/prepared to perfect. The water is crystal clear and the activities provided are perfect to enjoy the 3.5 hours in the cove. I would 100% recommend going on this and can imagine whatever time of day you go you will have the best time! Please if you’re coming to Crete especially the Heraklion area go and do this experience.
