For those eager to explore beneath the waves, snorkelling equipment will be readily available, allowing you to discover the mesmerizing seabed beneath you.

As the day gracefully unfolds, you'll set sail back towards the Old Venetian Port of Chania, with memories of a lifetime etched into your heart. You'll arrive back at approximately 5 p.m., bringing your full-day sailing adventure to a close.
