Private sunset cruise in Paros

A private sunset cruise in Paros starts at €1,200 for 4 hours on the Technohull GT7 RIB, for up to 7 guests. The GTX RIB is €1,500 for 8, the Axopar 37 €1,700 for 10 and the Azimut 56 €3,000 for 12. Skipper, fuel, drinks and snacks are always included.

A 4-hour sunset cruise usually leaves about three hours before sunset. In late June, when the sun sets at about 20:44, that means around 17:30. In early September, with sunset near 19:49, we leave around 16:45. We confirm the exact time a day before, based on the forecast.

A Paros sunset cruise follows the west coast, where the sun sets over the sea. Typical stops are Parikia bay, Agios Fokas, the strait between Paros and Antiparos and the Blue Lagoon at Panteronisia for a swim. On a longer charter we can continue to Despotiko, south-west of Antiparos.

From the sea, the best sunset is in the strait between Paros and Antiparos. On land, popular spots are the chapel and lighthouse at Agios Fokas west of Parikia, the Frankish Castle in Parikia and the Korakas lighthouse in Paros Park. All face west.

If the north wind is strong, the skipper moves the route to the sheltered side of Paros or Antiparos. The wind often eases towards evening. If the sea is not safe, we suggest another evening. We watch the forecast with you from the day before.
