I hope you are having a good day. The cruises we offer are private and we have professional dedicated staff on board to allow for privacy. We sail to secluded lagoons along Jambiani coast and serve fresh foods and wine pairings on board. The boat is also the only one of its kind on the island so it is a unique experience. We would love to host you if you are looking an unforgettable memory for your holidays.

If you'd like to go ahead and book your sailing experience with us please fill in the form with the information and we will be delighted to host you.
