Few things are more Cycladic than watching the sun sink into the Aegean from the deck of a sailing boat. This evening trip leaves Naxos harbour on a sailing yacht of about 15 metres with a maximum of ten passengers, so the experience stays relaxed and personal.
What you will experience
- Sailing along the west coast of Naxos.
- A swim stop in a clear-water cove.
- Local wine, soft drinks and fresh fruit on board.
- Sunset with the Portara, the gate of the Temple of Apollo, silhouetted on the horizon.
Who it is for
Couples, friends and families. It is the perfect activity for your first or last evening on the island, or for a discreet proposal. No sailing experience needed, although you can help with the manoeuvres if you like.
What to bring
- Swimwear and towel if you want to swim.
- A jacket: the temperature drops after sunset.
- A camera or a charged phone.
Best time to go
May to October. In July and August the wind can be strong in the afternoon; the skipper picks the most sheltered area or suggests another day if it is not safe.
Included
- Sailing yacht with skipper (max 10)
