About this experience
Your evening begins with a glass of chilled Prosecco and carefully crafted Mediterranean finger foods as light snacks. After a brief safety briefing, we set sail on our luxurious catamaran, cruising towards the enchanting Dia Island — a protected natural reserve steeped in myth, said to have been created by Zeus himself. Enjoy the stunning beauty of this unspoiled paradise as we glide across the sparkling waters.
Upon reaching the calm bay of Dia Island, you’ll have time to connect with the sea.
Back on board, a delicious plate of sushi rolls awaits you. Savor every bite while taking in the endless sea views.
Then relax on the deck or head back into the water, while a platter of fresh seasonal fruit awaits you on board.
As we sail back into the open sea, prepare for the highlight of the cruise — a breathtaking sunset over the water, where vibrant colors paint the sky and the tranquil sea reflects nature’s masterpiece, creating an unforgettable, serene experience.
