Every day, the Black Rose embarks on boat tours from the port of Hersonissos through the clear waters of the Cretan Sea. Take the opportunity to enjoy magnificent sea scenes, swim and snorkel in refreshing waters, and enjoy a delicious barbecue lunch.
Make your way to Hersonissos Port and meet the Black Rose, where a friendly and experienced crew will welcome you. Travel through the clear-blue Mediterranean Sea toward the bay of Sant Georges. Enjoy swimming and snorkeling and until you return to the boat, the crew has prepared a delicious BBQ meal. Afterwards you set sails along the coast to the east, to Stalis and Malia, where you have plenty of opportunity to refresh yourself in the blue sea. Pirate animation is during the trip provided for our small fellows.
End your day with a relaxing ride back to Hersonissos Port in the late afternoon.
