Sail All Day on a Luxury Catamaran

Catamaran Full Day Cruise Halkidiki — 7 Hours on the Water

The catamaran full day cruise Halkidiki experience is the complete way to explore this coastline. Seven hours on our spacious catamaran, exploring waters that most visitors to Halkidiki never see — secluded coves, uninhabited islands, and turquoise water so clear you can watch the anchor chain disappear into the sand below. Our full-day catamaran cruise departs in the morning and returns at sunset, covering the finest stretches of the Sithonia and Kassandra coastlines with multiple swimming stops, snorkeling, and a relaxed lunch at anchor in a sheltered bay. This is the trip that guests describe most often as the best day of their holiday.

The Route — What to Expect on a Catamaran Full Day Cruise in Halkidiki

Departing from either Porto Carras Grand Resort Marina or Paliouri Chrousso Pier, we set sail along the Sithonia coastline toward Kelyfos Island — one of the most beautiful uninhabited islands in Halkidiki, surrounded by crystal-clear turquoise water ideal for snorkeling and swimming. From there, we continue to the Spalathronisia Islands — a small archipelago of rocky islets with some of the finest swimming water in northern Greece. Lunch is served at anchor here, either prepared on board or at a local taverna ashore. The afternoon brings us to the secret coves of Porto Carras — private anchorages tucked below the estate’s pine-covered hillside, accessible only from the sea. These are the places our skipper knows that don’t appear on any map. Along the way, when the wind is right, we sail — and there is nothing quite like the catamaran under sail with the Sithonia coastline alongside. We return to the departure point as the sun sets over the Thermaic Gulf. Seven hours that most guests describe as the best day of their trip to Halkidiki.
