When pirates roamed the waters surrounding Crete, they were set to plunder the riches of antiquity, but they were also rewarded by the island’s breathtaking geography. Exploring Crete from the sea is the only way to truly understanding this awe-inspiring island. So many beaches, bays, coves, and watersports are inaccessible or otherwise impossible to enjoy from landward.
Chania has many yacht excursions, sailing tours, day trips, fishing, and charter opportunities. There is a different adventure waiting at Chania’s Old Harbour or any of the region’s many marinas. Take a private sailing cruise with lunch, or coast along the northern shore of Crete on a romantic excursion to Gramvousa and Balos.
