What you can expect

  • Discover the coast of Crete your way with a T-Assos 450 (4.6m) — a nimble, easy-to-handle boat designed for freedom on the water. Powered by a 30HP engine, this boat is ideal for couples, families, or groups of friends looking to explore without needing a licence.

    The boat features a bimini for shade, all required safety equipment, a cooler, and space for up to 4 guests comfortably. Rent the boat with a skipper for a stress-free day — relax, swim, navigate, and enjoy the scenery.

    If you prefer to take the helm yourself, no boating licence is required — perfect for easy day trips. Fuel is included in the price, so you can set off without surprises.

    Departing from Kasteli, you’re at the gateway to some of Crete’s most beautiful and secluded spots, including Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa Island. Enjoy total freedom to customise your day — swim, sunbathe, and anchor in quiet bays far from the crowds.

    The boat has capacity for 4 adults on board. So if you decide you need a skipper, the max adult capacity is 3. If you don't use a skipper, then the boat can accommodate 4 adults.
