FAQs
1. What is the itinerary for a full-day sailing cruise in Rethymno?
A full-day sailing cruise in Rethymno typically spans 7 to 8 hours, allowing for a deep exploration of the Cretan coastline. Departing from the Marina, we head toward secluded bays and sea caves that are inaccessible by land. This extended time on the water allows for multiple swimming stops, snorkeling in turquoise waters, and a relaxed lunch on deck, making it the most comprehensive way to experience the Aegean.
2. Can I customize a multi-day sailing trip from Rethymno?
Yes. While we offer structured routes, our multi-day expeditions are designed for those who want to live the seafaring life. You can choose to explore the hidden gems of the Cretan coast or venture toward neighboring islands. These trips provide the luxury of waking up in a new bay every morning, combining high-end accommodation on our 55ft yacht with the freedom of a private itinerary.
3. What facilities are available for guests on longer cruises?
The “AIOLOS” is long-stay friendly. There are 5 cabins on the sailboat, 3 WCs and an additional shower to make all guests comfortable. Its interior is spacious with a sitting area and a full kitchen and its exterior has 17 meters of deck space and sunbeds. Whether you are on a full-day sailing cruise in Rethymno or a week-long journey, you have access to Wi-Fi, music, and all necessary linens.
4. Are meals and drinks included during the full-day sailing cruise in Rethymno?
On our full-day excursions, we provide snacks, fresh fruit, and beverages to keep you refreshed. For those looking for a more gourmet experience, we can arrange traditional Cretan meals to be served on board. The goal is to provide a seamless, luxury experience where you don’t have to worry about logistics, just the sailing, the sun, and the sea.
5. What makes a multi-day cruise better than a standard day trip?
A multi-day cruise allows you to bypass the “tourist pace” and truly synchronize with the rhythm of the sea. You get the opportunity to visit remote spots during the quietest hours of the day, such as early morning or late evening after the day-trippers have left. It will make a holiday a true sailing adventure, providing a degree of privacy and relaxation that no full-day sailing cruise in Rethymno can give in a limited period of time.
