What to expect

Discover Skiathos from a different perspective on this cruise. You'll see the famous Blue Caves of the north coast, enjoy downtime on Lalaria and Kastro beaches, free time in Katigiorgis, as well as a stop at Tsougrias Island.

Relax on deck in the morning sun as you sail past the Blue Caves – a string of sea grottoes carved into the coastline – en route to the island's most beautiful beach, Lalaria. This sweep of white pebbles is a little slice of heaven and only accessible by boat. Follow this up with a stop at Kastro beach, where you can sunbathe in the shadow of the island's former capital, Kastro. Here, you can walk around the preserved ruins and learn what live would've been like here during its heyday in the 13th and 14th centuries.

Next up is the fishing village of Katigiorgis. Here, we'll stop for free time for you to grab a bite to eat in one of its quaint tavernas. Once you're suitably refuelled, we'll cross over to our final stop of the day, Tsougrias Island. The beaches here are comparable to those of the Caribbean – it's a real hidden treasure.

    Booked trip to see north island as buses don’t go, especially Kastro, old capital but due to rough seas could only see briefly from boat along with Lalaria beach. Sea was very choppy and captain will only go if safe. Went other way round due to this & stopped at Tsougrias first for hour then went to another beach past Koukounaries before lunch at Katigiorgis on Greek mainland which was pretty. Not a lot to see other than views/beaches but expect better if can stop in Kastro to see church.

    I realise we have no control over the weather. and it's a fine line to need the revenue, not let people down against safety. But I felt the line that was chosen could have been an earlier decision on behalf of the older and young children. I am all for adrenaline ride but I did not feel safe, the waves were really rough to the point of the boats high and lows were something I haven't experienced before, all on board ere holding on in fear. Boat did turn round, they tried to give a better experi

    The information says “ wander round the old capital “ The crew advised there was not time to go to the ruins and another passenger said the path was dangerous. This needs revising as some people were disappointed

    Seating was uncomfortable. The beaches were shingly. The last beach was described as, on a par with the Caribbean, which it certainly was not.

    We did not book the Around the Island Cruise, but the Sun & Sea Cruise. We wished we had read the previous reviews regarding this trip (especially late changes to the planned itinerary). Whilst we are aware that their may be changes due to the weather conditions, this should be relayed BEFORE setting sail. It was quite clear that the crew knew the planned route had changed. We should have been given the option to reschedule to another day. Waste of money as we'd already visited the beaches.
