Itinerary
Step aboard Agia Kali, a beautifully restored wooden kaiki, and experience the magic of the South Aegean on an intimate semi-private cruise limited to just 12–14 guests. Departing from Alyki Marina at 10:00, this handcrafted voyage blends the beauty of the sea, the warmth of Greek hospitality, and the joy of authentic island cuisine.
Glide across turquoise waters and discover hidden coves, dramatic sea caves, and pristine beaches accessible only by boat. Several swimming and snorkeling stops reveal the untouched landscapes of Antiparos and Despotiko, where shades of blue shift with every turn. The captain selects the best route each day based on weather, ensuring comfort, safety, and a truly unique experience. Our first stop will be Agios Nikolas, a charming chapel perched on a small island. Surrounded by rugged cliffs and pristine turquoise waters, this serene spot is perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and capturing iconic views of the Cyclades’ natural beauty. Its peaceful atmosphere and striking setting make it an ideal introduction to the hidden gems along this southeastern coast. After your swim, enjoy a snack on board, savoring fresh local treats as you relax and take in the stunning surroundings.
Continue along the wild southeastern coast to admire dramatic rock formations. Savor the vibrant colors and awe-inspiring beauty of this imposing landscape, carved by centuries of wind and waves. Dive into the crystal-blue waters, feeling their cool embrace ripple around you as sunlight sparkles across the surface, revealing hidden coves and rocky underwater formations waiting to be explored. Afterward, relax on board or take the opportunity to snorkel among vibrant marine life, soaking in the serenity of this untouched stretch of coastline.
Our third stop will be at Tsimintiri Island, nestled between Despotiko and Antiparos, where the crystal-clear waters shift through mesmerizing shades of blue with every turn. This serene island offers pristine beaches and calm waters, perfect for swimming, snorkeling, or simply relaxing amid its untouched natural beauty. The highlight of the cruise is a gourmet lunch freshly prepared on board — a feast of Greek flavors featuring dakos salad, mussels with feta and wine, and ouzo-saffron risotto, paired with fine beverages and followed by seasonal fruit. Each dish celebrates the region’s culinary heritage and the simple pleasure of sharing a meal at sea (indicative menu — subject to change). Throughout the day, enjoy the relaxed, family-like atmosphere created by the English-speaking crew, always attentive yet unobtrusive, ensuring a memorable and carefree experience.
Our last stop will be Panteronissi, also known as the Blue Lagoon, where the turquoise waters shimmer in a spectrum of blues, creating the sensation of an endless natural swimming pool. Surrounded by untouched coastline, this idyllic spot invites you to swim, snorkel, or simply float and soak in the serene beauty of the Aegean Sea. After your swim, enjoy a refreshing selection of fresh fruits on board, the perfect way to savor the flavors of the season while basking in the sun. As the kaiki returns to Alyki Marina around 16:30, you’ll carry with you more than just memories of the sea — you’ll have lived a day that captures the true essence of the Cyclades: sun, flavor, and heartfelt connection.

We had a wonderful time! Some of the best food and views of the trip. I would highly recommend this to anyone.
Thank you for taking the time and leave a review.
Two man crew were excellent. Very polite and friendly! Boat seemed older but was very comfortable for the ten passengers. The brunch was absolutely amazing. He just kept bringing it out. Highly recommend.
Thank you for your review! We are glad you a enjoyed your experience.
We had a fantastic day on the boat trip and couldn’t recommend it more highly. The boat itself was beautiful—a lovingly restored fishing boat that felt authentic and full of character. It was kept in immaculate condition and had plenty of space for all 12 of us to relax comfortably. What we particularly loved was the atmosphere. This is very much the opposite of a party boat: peaceful, relaxed, and unhurried. We visited some stunning spots with the clearest, most crystal-blue water we’ve ever seen. The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was freshly prepared with care and served midway through the trip. There was plenty of it, and it felt genuinely authentic and homemade Greek food rather than standard tourist fare. Captain George and Yannis, who cooked and hosted, were wonderful. They were warm, respectful, and attentive without ever being intrusive. Their focus was simply on making sure everyone had a great time, and they struck that balance perfectly. A truly memorable day and one of the highlights of our trip.
Thank you for your review. We are thrilled you enjoyed your day!

The captain George and chef/mate Janis were absolutely amazing! A wonderful day spent on the water enjoying delicious Greek food.
Thank you for your review. This really is a great trip!
My friends and I had an amazing time on this boat last year, swimming in warm waters of the Aegean Sea, snorkeling, eating delicious Greek food and meeting new people. I enjoyed it so much that I had to bring my mother here. And so, I've been on this boat twice and I highly recommend it! This time, due to the winds, we went with a different route, which was great because that means I got to see new locations. But no matter where you go, all the sites are amazing. The views are breathtaking. The water is clear and so warm, it's perfect for swimming. The group is limited to about 10-12 people, tops. Both times, I met such great people, and sitting at one table for lunch, we got to know each other and share a great meal. And the food prepared by Yiannis was probably the best Greek food I've had in Paros! (And that's saying a lot, because everything I had on the island was delicious). All of dishes were incredibly good and there was so much food! There was also endless white wine. And, of course, Yiannis and George made us feel very welcome. They were very attentive and friendly. This boat was definitely the highlight of both of my visits to Paros. So, if you're visiting and you're looking for a great time out in the sea, delicious food and great company, I highly recommend it.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are thrilled that you had such a great time and enjoyed yourselves so much!
