Enjoy the crystal clear blue sea of Crete by a private 7 meters rib boat with a skipper!
Starting from the Old Harbour we will go to Spilies Beach. Our boat stops outside of the caves and you can snorkel to the caves or just wander around. (Please, note, that snorkeling in the caves is also subject to weather conditions).
Next stop: The secret beach with fine sand and pebbles, accessible only by boat. The beach is surrounded by rocks that provide shade during the day, depending on the season. You can dive from the boat, enjoy swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing on the beach. A beautiful natural arch called Kamarola is a great sight for memorable pictures.
Afterward, we will take a look at Geropotamos Beach and its turquoise waters while enjoying some snacks and drinks on board.
On the way back to the harbour we will see the Fortezza Castle and the beautiful coastal line of Rethymno Old Town from the sea.
Please, note, all boat tours are subject to weather conditions.

What a great trip ! Kostas looked after us so well. Loads of info on the way across the bay to the sheltered coves. Snorkeling in three different places with lots of fish, garfish and even a few Fire Worms. Crystal clear water. Snacks and drinks before heading back. Drinks by the Harbour to finish. Thanks Kostas !

It was a really incredible experience going on the boat tour with Blue Fin. The team are very knowledgeable of all the best swimming spots along the coast and took us to areas with beautiful views. Then we stopped for a swim in an area with gorgeous turquoise water. It’s a truly unique swimming opportunity with clean and clear water that allows you to easily see the fish around you (highly recommended for snorkeling). You won’t get the same type of swimming experience in the city beach! And in the way back you get great photo opportunities of old Rethymno, particularly the lighthouse!

We took a 3-hour boat trip to enjoy the end of the Cretan day. A magical moment shared with family, thanks to the kindness of Kostas. An aperitif at sunset, breathtaking waters and landscapes! We recommend with your eyes closed!

The most amazing boat trip ever! Kostas, our captain was extremely warm, friendly, and especially accommodating. We celebrated a birthday on the boat and asked if there was a way he could make it extra special, however he went above and beyond. He brought a cake his wife baked especially for the trip, and gifted us a bottle of great wine. The boat was beautiful, comfortable, and clean. Kostas took us to beautiful spots along the island, and told us a bit about the history of the area. We truly had the best time, and would recommend to anyone looking for a private boat trip.

Our family of four took a fabulous 4 hours boat trip with Blue Fin in early August 2023. I dropped Kostas a WhatsApp message enquiring about availability etc and we had a message exchange before agreeing the itinerary and cost.

This trip was the highlight of our week in Rethymno: a beautiful clean white Rib vessel with a powerful engine that zipped us west to some fantastic beaches and coves. There was enough room on the boat for four passengers to sit at the front or the back, if you wanted some shade.

Kostas has such knowledge of the best places to visit based completely on what we wanted to do. The children were very excited to swim and wanted to snorkel. So we went to a very quiet cove with the bluest, clearest water, where we did both.

The boat had snorkelling equipment, and Kostas had fresh fruit, snacks, water and fruit juice for us all. He even offered beers!

The pricing was very transparent, based on time/length of trip, plus whatever fuel was consumed. The GPS was used to calculate fuel based on distance. Our trip was very direct, no unnecessary diversions or routes, to keep costs to minimum.

Kostas also offered several recommendations for cafes, restaurants and other worthwhile excursions and attractions to visit. He was completely invested in our enjoyment of our whole holiday.
