What to expect

Captain Gianni and his crew invite you on board for a sunset cruise to the tip of Kos. There'll be plenty of swimming and aperitif sipping as well as a barbecue on a secluded pebble beach. Watch the sun go down on the shore, then return with the stars above and the twinkling lights of coastal villages passing you by.

This late afternoon cruise has all the ingredients for romance on the island of Kos. You'll embark at Kefalos Bay and set sail along the coast to the tip of the island. Along the way there'll be a swimming stop in turquoise waters as you wait for the sun to do its magic and turn the skies shades of orange and pink.

You'll head to a secluded beach for an apéritif where you'll also be the only guests. Then the barbecue will be lit and a freshly sizzled dinner will be served. Wine will be flowing, the music will fill the air and the crew will invite you to take part in a traditional sirtaki dance as the sun goes down.

Kos Kaiki boat cruise to Nera and Kalymnos islands with lunch

Wind in your hair, sun on your face, you can catch some rays on deck as you set sail from Mastihari. Aboard a traditional Kaiki boat, it's time to relax and unwind as your captain drops anchor at secluded bays and swim spots at the neighbouring islands of Nera and Kalymnos. Eleni, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Kaiki are the colourful wooden boats that Greece is so famous for. We are a nation of boatbuilders and fishermen, and even though many Kaiki boats are now used for tourism, look out for them still being used for fishing.'Sun, sea and swimming – a trio of things that make being on holiday so special. Your journey will take you across to the tiny isle of Nera, home to a single house and a handful of deserted coves. Sailing onwards to Kalymnos Island, you'll reach the shores around Vlyxadia where you'll be able to cool off in the Aegean and try your hand at snorkelling if you're in the mood. The waters here are calm and clear – and if you're lucky, you may be able to spot the dolphins and sea turtles that call the area home.You'll have free time to make the most of the great swimming spots, top up your tan on deck, or see what you can spot underwater. By lunchtime, you'll be ready for a freshly prepared lunch made with locally sourced ingredients. After tucking into local specialities and Greek favourites on-deck, there are more opportunities for swimming, before it's time for the return trip complete with great views over the water to the Kos coastline.
