We took the Nautilos Cruise to the island, as other reviewers suggested. It was totally worth every penny spent! The crew was awesome and I can only recommend it. The island itself is beautiful, and the color of the water is just amazing. I dont' know if I would have wanted to sta there all day, but since we booked... More

My boyfriend and I have just returned from a 10 day stay in Crete. Before we went I researched things to do and so we knew we wanted to go to Chrissi. As we were so early in the season (2 - 12 May) we were told that the trips to Chrissi may not have started. Prior to our holiday... More

The trip to Chrissi Island had it all: a semi-private island, crystal clear water, a fishing trip, snorkeling, and great company.

The yacht is beautiful, very 'James Bond' with cream leather seats or the chance to sit on on the deck at the front. We had contacted the owner through their website several... More
