What to expect

Slow down and ease into a day where you'll escape the crowds and experience a little laidback luxury as you cruise around the western shore of Halkidiki's Sithonia Peninsula. Helene, a local guide, says “this tour takes us to some of my favourite spots. Spathies Beach has secluded coves without the usual hustle and bustle of the resorts, while Neos Marmaras offers a balance of cosy tavernas and traditional Greek charm, with modern bars and facilities.”

You'll head to Nikiti Port where your boat awaits. From here, you'll sail down the coast of the Toroneos Gulf before dropping anchor at Spathies Beach for your first swim stop. Helene adds, “make sure you grab a snorkel and mask to make the most of this hotspot for parrotfish and damselfish – you may find an octopus hiding in rocky reefs, too.” Then, it's back on board to sail towards Neos Marmaras Village.

There's free time for a wander around the village, where you can shop for souvenirs or chat with the friendly locals – it's the best way to soak up the culture. Then, you'll return to the sea and sail to Kelyfos Island, affectionally known as Turtle Island, while enjoying a light lunch on board. The cliffs of this tiny island make for some curious-looking cave formations at its edge that beg to be explored. Take the plunge off the side of the boat and swim around this uninhabited land. Or, if your idea of fun is simply basking on the deck with some music and a cold drink in hand, then feel free to unwind. Whatever floats your boat, you'll want to drink in the coastal views as you sail back to the harbour after a day of escapism.

    This trip is overrated by the TUI rep . 95 euros was too much for a trip on a boat with such uncomfortable seating . The time allocated to go ashore was far too short. Only had time for a coffee The boat family were lovely and so was the lunch but the toilet wasn’t good . It was blocked at one point and wouldn’t flush! My partner and myself are in our 70’s and had no chance of getting in to swim by the vertical metal ladder. I feel that should be addressed by the rep selling the trip . Unhappy

    When we arrived on the boat there was no introduction to welcome us on board, who the staff were, where we were going or even any safety information! There was no comfort on the boat for a 4-8 hour trip. The hygiene of the boat was awful, at one point the toilet was unusable, toilet didn't flush & no running water to wash hands! Lady was lovely but she had her hands full looking after own children. Meat with lunch was under cooked. Scenery & Swim was nice.

    Great trip , the couple that run the boat are simply wonderful, the only thing I would suggest is take a light coat with you as it can get a bit cold in the wind while you travel on the ocean.

Halkadiki båttur med besök i Neos Marmaras, bad och lunch

Halkadiki båttur med besök i Neos Marmaras, bad och lunch

Ta det lugnt och njut av en dag där du kan fly undan folkmassorna och uppleva lite avslappnad lyx medan du kryssar längs den västra kusten av Halkidikis halvö Sithonia. Helene, en lokal guide, säger: "Den här turen tar oss till några av mina favoritplatser. Spathies Beach har avskilda vikar utan den vanliga resorthastigheten, medan Neos Marmaras erbjuder en balans mellan mysiga tavernor och traditionell grekisk charm med moderna barer och faciliteter."Du åker till Nikiti Port där båten väntar. Härifrån seglar du längs Toroneosbuktens kust innan du kastar ankar vid Spathies Beach för din första badstopp. Helene tillägger: ”Se till att ta med snorkel och mask för att få ut det mesta av denna populära plats för papegojfiskar och damselfiskar – du kanske också hittar en bläckfisk som gömmer sig i de klippiga reven.” Sedan är det tillbaka ombord för lunch medan du seglar mot byn Neos Marmaras.Du har ledig tid att strosa runt i byn, där du kan köpa souvenirer eller prata med de vänliga lokalbefolkningen – det är det bästa sättet att ta in kulturen. Sedan återvänder du till havet och seglar till ön Kelyfos, som kärleksfullt kallas Sköldpaddsön. Klipporna på denna lilla ö bildar några märkliga grottformationer vid kanten som bara väntar på att utforskas. Ta ett dopp från båten och simma runt denna obebodda ö. Om du hellre vill sola på däck med musik och en kall dryck i handen är det också upp till dig. Oavsett vad du föredrar kommer du att vilja njuta av kustvyerna när du seglar tillbaka till hamnen efter en dag av avkoppling.
