Is a sailing cruise in Chania suitable for people who cannot swim well?<\/strong>
Yes. All cruises include life jackets and calm swimming spots. You can also stay on board and enjoy the view and the sea without entering the water.<\/p>\nDo sailing trips get seasick?<\/strong>
Usually no. Cruises operate on the north-west coast where waters are protected and calm. Large catamarans are very stable and suitable even for first time boat guests.<\/p>\nIs it better to visit Balos by boat or by land?<\/strong>
By boat the experience is easier and more relaxing. You avoid the long walk and reach the lagoon directly from the water.<\/p>\nWhat should I bring on a boat trip?<\/strong>
Swimwear, towel, sunscreen, hat and light clothing. Everything else is normally provided on board.<\/p>\nAre sunset cruises different from daytime cruises?<\/strong>
Yes. Sunset trips are calmer, quieter and more romantic, while daytime cruises include more swimming stops and time in the water.<\/p>\nCan we book a private cruise instead of joining a group?<\/strong>
Of course. Private catamaran and sailing options are available and can be arranged depending on availability and weather.<\/p>\nDo I need to book in advance?<\/strong>
In summer months it is strongly recommended, especially for sunset or private cruises.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Discover Chania from the sea with a relaxed catamaran cruise to Balos and hidden bays.
