MENIES BEACH & HIRONISIA BAY

Escape the crowds and explore the virgin side of Crete!

Meeting point: Kolymvari Marina

Itinerary: The cruise starts at 9:00 am from Kolymvari Marina Chania, and after 20 minutes of cruising we arrive at Menies beach. Next, we head south to the purple reef sea cave and the private bay of Limnionari. Then we make a last stop at Hironisia Bay before returning back to Chania at 4:00 pm.

If you are looking for bays away from the crowds, our private yacht cruise to the east of the Rodopou Peninsula Nature Reserve is the perfect trip, as it is accessible only by boat. Wild nature, sea caves, secret beaches and crystal-clear waters are just some of the breathtaking natural beauties that await you.

At Menies bay, explore the ancient city of Diktinna and the temple of Vritomartis, named after the Minoan goddess and daughter of Zeus, who was worshiped in Crete in ancient times.

Heading south along the peninsula, we will visit a stunning sea cave of purple coral reef. The next stop will be the peaceful bay of Hironisia, where you can swim and snorkel through turquoise waters or simply lounge in the Cretan sunshine and enjoy the unique surroundings.
