Join a unique full-day cruising experience through the crystal-clear waters of the Aegean, exploring the hidden beauty of Naxos and the Small Cyclades aboard the Axopar 28ft (2020). Designed for comfort, relaxation and adventure, this private cruise combines secluded beaches, untouched bays, authentic island scenery and unforgettable swimming spots accessible only by boat.
Departure takes place from Naxos Marina at 09:30, with the route carefully selected according to weather conditions and guest preferences. The journey may follow the southern coastline of Naxos toward the Small Cyclades or head west toward Antiparos and its surrounding bays, always focusing on the most beautiful sea conditions and locations of the day.
The first stop is usually the famous Rina's Cave, reached approximately 45 minutes after departure. The cave is known for its magnificent turquoise waters, ideal for swimming and snorkeling. Guests may also experience cliff jumping from the surrounding rocks, with guidance provided for safe access and jumping. The nearby rocky beach and cave surroundings create an impressive natural landscape perfect for exploration.
The cruise continues along the southern coastline to Panermos Palm Beach, one of the most remote and exotic beaches of Naxos, surrounded by unspoiled scenery and calm blue waters ideal for swimming and relaxing onboard with chilled wine, cold beers or refreshing soft drinks.
One of the highlights of the day is Ano Koufonisi, one of the most picturesque islands of the Small Cyclades. Time is provided to walk through the charming whitewashed village, discover the island atmosphere and enjoy lunch at a traditional Greek taverna by the sea (optional).
Following lunch, the journey proceeds to Kato Koufonisi, an uninhabited island famous for its extraordinary blue-green waters and untouched natural beauty. Depending on sea conditions, different hidden bays around the island are explored, offering exceptional swimming opportunities in some of the clearest waters of the Cyclades.
On the return toward Naxos, a stop is usually made at Agios Sostis, a small hidden bay with a picturesque chapel surrounded by crystal-clear waters and local legends. Before arriving back at the marina around 17:30, a final swim stop is enjoyed at one of the western beaches of Naxos, completing a day filled with exploration, relaxation and authentic Cycladic scenery.
