Genuine Sailing, Low Impact

We prioritize sails over motors whenever conditions allow — quieter, cleaner, and closer to the sea. Official COMBER marine biodiversity partner.

Fresh from Small Cretan Producers

Every spread is built around locally sourced, seasonal ingredients — extra virgin olive oil, Cretan cheeses, vegetables, herbs, and homemade bites from trusted small producers across Crete. 

Intimate Small Groups

Never crowded. You'll have space on deck, time with the crew, and the kind of experience that disappears when boats are packed.

Local Skippers Who Know Every Bay

20+ years navigating these coasts. Our crew knows the winds, the hidden coves, and the stories behind every island.
