This full day Domata Agios Pavlos boat trip offers you unique views and access to some of the most secluded and remote beaches along southwest Crete.
Most of the places you visit during the day have no road access and are only accessible by boat or on foot!
Starting in Chora Sfakion (or Loutro), we set off for the furthest beaches of the day, Domata, Fournoti and Kalogeros. The distant view of Crete from the boat enables us to take in the island´s majestic high peaks and imposing gorges that plummet into the deep blue sea.
With a 99% chance of there being nobody else on the beach, we enjoy an undisturbed swim. From then on, we travel back along the coastline stopping at any remote beach we fancy! We visit the Byzantine chapel of Agios Pavlos on its deserted beach and stop for lunch at the marble beach of Marmara or at the picturesque fishing village of Loutro. Finally we have a last swim at the refreshing Sweet Water (Glyka Nera) beach before returning to Sfakia.

We hebben een boot (rib 150pk) gehuurd met schipper vanaf Sfakia. Michalis is een vriendelijke jongen die met ons de zuidkant van het eiland liet ontdekken. Daarnaast zagen we toevallig 2 kleine walvissen, waar we naar toe gevaren zijn. Het leken eerste dolfijnen, maar dichterbij waren ze daarvoor te groot. Met respect voor deze creaturen hebben we na enkele minuten besloten om weer weg te varen. Kortom hoe gaaf wil je het hebben.
