Discover Blue Lagoon, Antiparos & Despotiko on a Traditional Gulet Cruise
Step aboard Galatea, a traditional wooden gulet, and enjoy an unforgettable full-day cruise through the crystal-clear waters of the Aegean Sea. Discover the beauty of Blue Lagoon, Antiparos, and Despotiko, swim in secluded bays accessible only by boat, and experience authentic Greek hospitality in the heart of the Cyclades.
With a maximum of just 25 guests, you'll enjoy a relaxed and uncrowded atmosphere, far from the large tour boats. Stretch out on comfortable sunbeds, unwind in shaded lounge areas, and admire spectacular coastal scenery while sailing between some of the area's most beautiful destinations.
Your adventure begins at 10:00 AM from Piso Livadi, Paros. Our experienced local crew will take you to stunning swimming and snorkelling spots with plenty of time to relax in crystal-clear waters.
The first stop is South Antiparos, where you'll swim in pristine turquoise waters. Freshly prepared sandwiches are served on board during this stop.
The cruise continues to Despotiko, an uninhabited island famous for its natural beauty and archaeological importance. Depending on sea conditions, we'll anchor near the Temple of Apollo channel, the impressive White Cliffs, or Livadia Beach. Here you'll enjoy another swim before a freshly prepared traditional Greek lunch made with local ingredients.
You'll also visit the famous Blue Lagoon, one of the most spectacular swimming spots in the Cyclades. Its transparent turquoise waters are perfect for swimming, snorkelling, or simply relaxing while surrounded by breathtaking scenery.
Throughout the day, enjoy complimentary soft drinks, local wine, beer, and ouzo, all included.
Unlike larger excursion boats, Galatea offers a genuine sailing experience with personalised service, spacious decks, and authentic Greek hospitality.
Weather & Safety
Your safety is always our priority. If weather conditions prevent us from visiting South Antiparos or Despotiko, we'll cruise to two beautiful alternative locations around Paros: Agios Myronas, a peaceful bay with crystal-clear waters, and Agios Nikolaos, famous for its charming chapel and excellent snorkelling conditions. These hidden gems are among the most beautiful places around the island.
