Antiparos, Blue Lagoon & Despotiko: Full-Day Cruise + Lunch + Drinks

Additional Information & Description

This full-day cruise from Paros takes you across the Aegean Sea, with island bays, a sea cave and a blue lagoon along the route. It is an eight-hour journey aboard the Galatea, combining time on the water with a lunch of local cuisine.

A route along Paros and beyond

The cruise follows Paros’ eastern coast and visits Antiparos’ southern bay, the sea cave, Despotiko and the Blue Lagoon. These named destinations give the day its shape: a coastal passage followed by visits beyond Paros itself. The itinerary brings several distinct places into one sailing day, rather than focusing on a single island. Departure is at 10 am, and the journey ends at 6 pm.

Travel aboard the Galatea

The Galatea is a Turkish schooner with spacious decks and a sleek design, accommodating up to 25 guests. The vessel is part of the appeal here: you spend the day aboard a schooner as it sails between the coastal and island destinations. Live guiding is available in English, Greek, Italian and Spanish, adding a guided element to the cruise rather than leaving the route entirely unexplained.

Local cuisine and included drinks

Lunch is included, with local cuisine served during the journey. Complimentary drinks include beer, local wine and ouzo; tsipouro is also among the drinks offered on board. Food and drinks are therefore part of the cruise itself, not separate additions to the day. Towels are excluded, so bring your own if you need one.

Departure and ticket access

The cruise departs from Piso Livadi port on Paros. Arrive 15 minutes before departure, which means being there at 9:45 am for the 10 am sailing. Tickets are delivered instantly, and smartphone tickets are accepted. The port is the starting point for the full-day journey.
