The Tour

⚓We are going to anchor in front of the sea cave.
🥽Accompanied by the crew, you can swim inside the cave.
🏖️The captain will choose the best bay for one more stop, according to the special day conditions.

Before we set sail:
1.Do you offer boat tours to Koufonissi?
Thanks for asking, but we do not offer boat tours that go to Koufonissi.
While we don't sail to Koufonissi, we offer something even more unique: we specialize in the South Naxos experience.
We sail exclusively from the peaceful bay of Panermos, the island's most sheltered gateway on the South Coast of Naxos.
This is our home, and here is why we believe it's the best part of the island:
Always Calm Waters: Unlike the windy North, the South Coast is naturally protected from "Meltemi" winds. Our trips are always peaceful, comfortable, and wave-free.
More Time for Adventure: Our 2-hour tours are perfectly timed. You can enjoy the sea in the morning and still have plenty of time to explore the famous mountain villages of Filoti and Apiranthos in the afternoon.
Join us to discover the authentic side of Naxos that remains untouched by the crowds!
2.Why Panermos is the Best Starting Point in Naxos:
- Sheltered from "Meltemi": While the North of Naxos can be windy, our South Coast boat tours enjoy calm, crystal-clear waters.
- Quick Access to Rina Cave: We are the closest departure point to Naxos' famous sea cave. Less time traveling means more time swimming!
- Avoid the Crowds: Escape the busy port of Naxos Chora. Panermos offers a quiet, pure, and "real" island experience.
- A Complete Island Tour: The drive from Naxos Town to Panermos through the mountain villages of Filoti and Apiranthos is the perfect way to see the heart of Naxos in one day.
- History and Stories: This area is full of history! Our local guide will tell you all the interesting stories about this ancient part of Naxos.
Starting from Panermos is the best way to see the hidden soul of Naxos!
