What you can expect

  • Elafonisi is stunning, but during the day it gets hot and crowded. And if you stay for the evening on your own, you face a long drive back in the dark over winding mountain roads. We have a better idea: premium sunset sailing, the DanEri way. Transfer is included for guests staying between Georgioupoli and Kolymvari: we pick you up at your hotel or at a convenient point nearby and bring you to Paleochora Port, where our catamaran departs at 17:00. Your exact pickup place and time depend on where you're staying, and our office will send them to you in advance.

    Step aboard and enjoy a welcome glass of prosecco. Stretch out on a sunbed or relax in the shade as we sail along the coast with music playing. By the time we drop anchor at Elafonisi, most day visitors have left. The turquoise lagoon and pink-white sands of this protected Natura 2000 area are calm and quiet.

    Swim in crystal-clear water, take out a stand-up paddleboard, snorkel with high-quality gear, or float on our pink flamingo. Fishing gear and a box of toys for kids are available on request.

    Sunset bites

    Our own catering has been awarded a Gold Medal at the Pan-Cretan Traditional Competition and the Golden Plate for Best Catering & Event Planner of the Year. The sunset bites, created by Greek chef Lefteris Soultatos and prepared in our catering kitchen, include a cheese platter, sushi and a seasonal fruit platter. Children get chicken bao buns instead of sushi. This is a light selection, not a full meal, and the menu may change slightly depending on the season. Need a gluten-free or vegetarian option? Please inform our office at least 2 days before your cruise.

    The open bar runs all evening at no extra cost: Greek white and rosé wine, Greek beer, soft drinks, water, espresso and detox water.

    Sail back to Paleochora in the golden hour, arriving around 20:30, and relax on the transfer back. Sunset time changes during the season: from late summer the sun sets during the sail back, and in early summer shortly after we return to port.

    One cruise, one winner: could it be you?

    On every DanEri Yachts cruise, one lucky guest wins an exclusive premium branded gift. Your boarding pass is your entry, so there's nothing to sign up for.

    Please note: the itinerary may change depending on weather conditions, as your comfort and safety are always our top priority.
