    Seitan Limania — "Devil's Ports" — is one of Crete's most dramatic beaches, carved into the Akrotiri Peninsula's wild coastline just a short drive from Chania. Hidden between sheer limestone cliffs that plunge into impossibly turquoise water, its raw beauty has made it one of the most photographed spots in all of Greece.

FAQs

During the peak season (June to September), booking several weeks in advance is highly recommended, especially for private charters and luxury yachts. Popular boats and destinations such as Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa often sell out well before the travel date.

Guest safety is always the top priority. If weather conditions are unsuitable for the planned trip, the operator may offer an alternative route, reschedule the excursion, or provide a refund according to the cancellation policy of the specific boat trip.

Crete offers access to some of the island's most spectacular coastal destinations, including Balos Lagoon, Gramvousa Island, Menies Beach, Thodorou Island, Seitan Limania, Elafonissi, Loutro, Marmara Beach, Agia Roumeli, and many secluded bays that are only accessible by sea.

All boat trips include a professional skipper, fuel for the planned itinerary, safety equipment, and insurance. Most cruises also include meals, drinks, snorkeling equipment, and SUP boards, allowing you to enjoy a comfortable and relaxing day at sea. Specific inclusions are listed on each boat trip page.

For the most enjoyable experience, we recommend bringing swimwear, a towel, sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, and a light jacket for the return journey. Don't forget your camera to capture Crete's stunning coastline, crystal-clear waters, and hidden beaches. If meals and drinks are not included in your trip, you may also wish to bring snacks and water.

The crew made us feel like family, constantly pointing out incredible spots for snorkeling, and the crystal-clear waters were honestly unbelievable. We spent the afternoon exploring the hidden coves near Seitan Limania, and the final stop for lunch was the highlight—fresh seafood with the best view of the turquoise Aegean I've ever seen.
