Great day to Dia - Very enjoyable. Not a lot of fish to see but the water was gorgeous. Much better than spending the day in the city. Our crew, George and George; were great and the meal was tasty. Thanks!!

Great Sailing Trip and Swim - We had the greatest time doing this excursion with our amazing captain, Nikolaos. He provided us with everything we asked for and prepared food for everyone and made sure no one was hungry. He took great care of our group of 8 and the other 3 guests and ensured everyone’s safety during the trip. We had a great time swimming at Dia Island especially thanks to Nikolaos. We would definitely recommend this to anyone that wants to have a relaxed sailing trip and a refreshing swim.

Great day on the water - A low stress trip to Dia with our family and another small party. Very good food and drinks. Keeping it small was so nice, but only downside is there were a dozen boats there. Water was chilly bit we still swam a bit. The crew were very friendly and helpful,and my daughter was offered to sail us back which she enjoyed. Plenty of room to put bags or change, and there was a restroom on board. We would certainly do again.

Good experience-- real sailing - We had a wonderful time on our morning excursion. Lots of beautiful views and a good amount of time to swim and snorkel at the island. We took our 3 children ages 10, 8, and 5. The sail over to Dia island was a bit rough and made several of us uncomfortable. I did bring kids dramamine, which was helpful, as it was a particularly windy day. Our captain was kind and a bit quiet but was happy to answer any questions about Crete and offered recommendations for the area. Other "sailing" tours we've been on in different parts of the world are on catamarans and mostly motoring with half of the mainsail out-- not this. This was real sailing. No motoring except when leaving and arriving. Even though I was a bit seasick on the way over, I couldn't help but respect that it was actual, legitimate sailling :)
