We can't wait to help you celebrate onboard! 

At Gialitissa, we always try to schedule our arrival at the cave during less crowded times, so you can enjoy a peaceful swim and the beaches away from the hustle and bustle.

Every time of day has its own unique beauty. The colors inside the cave and along the coast change magically from morning to afternoon.

We suggest you choose your departure time based on your own schedule and needs:

• What time do you want to have dinner?
• How far away are you staying from Panermos?
• Are you an early riser, or do you prefer a relaxed pace?

By choosing a shorter tour with us, you have the opportunity to fit the trip to Rina Cave into a whole day of Naxos exploration. 

Our excursion is just one beautiful part of your unforgettable day!

We meet at the large pier on Panermos beach!

Once you arrive at the beach, head left towards the end of the palm trees. 

A small path starts there, running parallel to the sea. 

Walk just 30 meters and you'll find the pier and the Gialitissa office.

To make it super easy for you, we will send you an accurate map showing the exact meeting spot once you confirm your reservation.

You can also use Google Maps for precise directions here:

For your boarding, we just need a certification number from you (e.g., your passport, ID, or driver's license number).

We completely understand you might not want to carry official documents with you on the boat trip. 

That's perfectly fine! 

You simply need to know the number so we can include it on our official crew list.

It's a quick and easy safety requirement! 

Please be at the dock at least 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time otherwise you might miss your reservation.

Please take into account the time it takes to get to Panermos and some extra time to park and get ready. 

We actually suggest allowing an extra half an hour for travel; the roads can be busy during peak season, and you might want to stop at some of the beautiful spots along the way

You have a few easy parking options available in Panermos:

1. Roadside Parking: Simple parking right on the road.
2. "Panermos" Parking: This spot is very close to the beach and includes handy facilities like showers, toilets, and some shade.
3. "Mitatos" Tavern Parking: You can use the parking area belonging to the local tavern.

Payment is easy! You can pay by card or cash right at the meeting point, on the pier, just before we set sail. 

To make sure you have the best trip possible, here's a quick checklist of what we recommend packing:

• Swimsuit
• Towel
• Sunscreen
• Water
• And, of course, your best smile!

On our excursion, we offer a small individual salad and a glass of white wine. Of course, fresh water is also available onboard throughout the trip. 

Yes, snorkeling equipment is included in the price!

Please note that the gear is shared among all guests and is simply washed with seawater after use.

We take excursions to the Rina Cave using two beautiful traditional sailboats:

• "Gialitissa": Has a maximum capacity of 10 people.
• "Agios Nikolaos": Has a maximum capacity of 20 people.

Yes, our Gialitissa boat trips are perfect for children and infants! Here's why:

• Short Duration: The trip is short, so no one has time to get bored.
• Frequent Stops: We make frequent stops for swimming and exploring.
• Minimal Travel Time: The maximum continuous travel time on the boat is only 25 minutes.
• Safety First: We provide swimming aid equipment for everyone.
• Helpful Guide: Our guide is there to help with anything you need during the trip and while swimming.
• Calm Seas: Most importantly, Panermos is protected from strong summer winds, so we have no waves at all, ensuring a smooth journey!

You are very welcome to join us!

We love teenagers and teenagers love Gialitissa. 

The tour aboard "Gialitissa" is a hit with teenagers for a few fun reasons:

• Freedom & Safety: Our small boat is less crowded, so you won't worry about "losing" them, yet they still enjoy the sense of freedom on the open deck.
• Action-Packed: We prioritize swimming, diving, and snorkeling time over travel time, ensuring moments of action at sea.
• Awesome Photos: Teenagers always get excited about the underwater photos and videos of their dives taken by our crew!

.Please note that we don't have a bathroom available on the boat.

We kindly recommend using the restroom facilities located in the parking lot right before you board.
