Detailed itinerary

End your day in true island style aboard a traditional kaiki — a handcrafted wooden fishing boat that captures the spirit of the Cyclades. Your evening begins with a comfortable transfer from Alyki, Paroikia, or Naoussa to Pounta Port, where your captain and crew will warmly welcome you aboard. As the kaiki sets sail at 17:00, settle in and let the gentle Aegean breeze carry you into an unforgettable sunset voyage.

Your destination is Panteronissi, a hidden turquoise lagoon often called the “Blue Lagoon.” Surrounded by rocky islets and translucent sea, it feels like floating in a vast natural swimming pool. Dive into its crystal-clear waters, feel the sun on your skin, and let the peaceful rhythm of the waves wash away the day. Back on deck, unwind as the soft breeze carries the scent of salt and sea.

As the sun begins its slow descent, the horizon transforms into a painting of gold, rose, and violet. Sip a glass of chilled local wine or a refreshing soft drink and enjoy light snacks — cold cuts, cheeses, fresh vegetable sticks, dips, and fruit — as the sky glows and the island coastline shimmers in the fading light. This serene cruise invites you to slow down and savor the magic of a Cycladic sunset. Around 20:30, you’ll disembark at Pounta port and be comfortably transferred back to your meeting point.
For safety reasons, this experience is recommended for guests aged five and above. The itinerary may be adjusted by the captain depending on weather and sea conditions to ensure a safe and comfortable journey for everyone.
